Puppy Parents Card with Tina

Hello crafters, it is Tina and today I am creating a sweet card for my husband, who is an incredible Dad and also a dog lover. Our two dogs Mira and Lena bring so much love and joy in our lives. When I saw the Puppy Parents stamp and die set, I knew it would be perfect for this project!

Of course, I selected the two fluffiest doggies of this adorable bunch since they look just like ours. To set the scene, I also stamped the sweet doghouse, a few balls, the food bowl, and some bones.

After creating a simple white card base, I die cut all the layers for this card. Starting with the white frame (largest of the Fancy Frames Rectangle dies), I backed this frame with a sheet of pink striped paper (Dots & Stripes Pastels) and finally I cut a white arched panel (Stitched Arch dies).

This last piece will become the base for my scene. First, I stamped a cobblestone border (Sprawling Surfaces). Next, I masked off this part of the panel with some Post-It tape and added a pink cloudy sky with a stencil from my stash and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide.

I pulled out my Copic Markers and colored all the images as well as the stone border. But when I did a try-out of the scene and put the dogs in place, it felt a bit busy. A piece of vellum is a good option to soften a busy background. Die cutting with the Stitched Arch again gave me the perfect vellum layer. I used a tape runner for vellum to attach this layer to the background and felt much happier with the design!

The arched shape of the Brilliant Banner 4 die was a perfect match for the scene, my Misti worked great to curve the combined sentiment from the Puppy Parents stamp (the red ink was pulled from my stash).  As a final embellishment, I added a few Pink Spinel Jewels.

I hope you will enjoy these fun Puppy Parents stamps as much as I did! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
