Dashing Dachshund Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, Tina here with a sweet Christmas themed card featuring the adorable Dashing Dachshund stamp and die set. This doggie is all excited and ready for the holiday season! As are our two fur babies Mira and Lena! They always love to ‘help’ when we decorate the Christmas tree!

For this project I selected a bright blue gingham paper from Critter Country. I have been hoarding this pack because it contains so many cute images! I cut a panel using the frame die from Frilly Frames Stripes.

Next, I stamped the sweet dachshund and two snowmen from Snowman Kisses (aren’t these guys super adorable!!). The row of pine trees from Winter Scenes is perfect to create a cold snowy backdrop. I colored all these images with my Copic markers and added white highlights with a gel pen.

As a focal point, I cut an arched frame from glittery cardstock using the two largest Stitched Semi Circles dies. Next, I made two snow banks from white Neenah paper and a backing piece for my frame. This piece was colored with a blending brush and Distress Oxide Kitsch Flamingo. I love to use pink as a Christmas color! The sentiment was selected from the Victorian Christmas set and stamped onto a white Brilliant Banner 1 with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

To assemble the card, I first adhered the gingham panel to a white card base. Next, I glued the tree border to the pink sky and added the two snowbanks. After gluing the glittery border in place, I mounted the whole piece to the card with foam tape.

Finally, I placed my images and banner onto the focal point. I wanted the dog to ‘jump’ into the scene, so I stamped the sentiment to the left side of the banner.

As embellishment I added three small snowflakes from Snowflake Circle Frame to the pink sky. I hope you will enjoy creating a card with this sweet dachshund set!
