Happy daaay Everyone... today over at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers our challenge is "H" is for HOUNDS... now who doesn't love a good dog card? But it turns out that in my collection of hundreds of stamps I do not have a good a dog stamp - REALLY?! So what does this Girl do? Well, she searches on-line for a free Dog digi (digital stamp).
Ha!ha!ha!... This is my very favorite Groucho Marxx quote... Giggle.
I fell in love with this wee doggy digi, which I colored with my Copic markers and then added furry details with my brand new Prismacolor Pencil Crayons. (I purchased this 60-crayon set on-line from Amazon.ca for only $20 and the colors are beautiful and the soft leads blend as well as the expensive set - Swoon).
These pencils layed down color so beautifully that I filled in my books using only these crayons. Of course I fussy cut out both the books and the Doggy and used foam pop dots to mount them onto a card base, and I enhanced the sparkle in his eye with Some Close To My Heart Liquid Glass.
So why not join us this week over at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers? You have until midnight, September 2nd to link up your doggie-related project for a chance to be selected as the Queen of Snark or one of her Princesses... Blog Candy is to be had!
As always, thanks for popping by to see what I am up to, and please do leave me a comment if you like what you see!

And not only do I find a FREE digi that is Exactly What I Need... but I also find a wonderful, new-to-me stamp store called Tiddly Inks. I downloaded ALL the Tiddly Inks free digital stamps offered and even spent a whopping $4.01 to buy a few more. I think I may be going back... Grin... And here is my card:
Wait for it....

ReplyDeleteThe little dog is adorable. I downloaded him, but can't find the books??? Help! What are they under? I love these pencils also. Great card and the saying is great. Edna Burgess
ReplyDeleteEdna, thanks for the visit and the comment! The books are a rubber stamp from Unity Stamp Company that I cannot find on their website so I don't think they are selling it any longer, although they do have several other stacked book stamps available.
DeleteSuper cute card for the hound challenge sistah!! ♡
ReplyDeleteLove that cute little dog, great job colouring him up and great sentiment and quote by Groucho I can almost hear him saying it.
ReplyDeleteLove it all, the card, the sentiment, the books and that cute little dog. Hard to believe he was a free download, I'm going to have to go and investigate
ReplyDeleteJane

ReplyDeleteI lost my fur baby a couple weeks ago.
This one looks something like Bear.

Mary, I am sooo Sorry ((hugs)). We lost our Emma at the beginning of April and she was the only dog we have ever had from "the beginning until the end"...Sigh. We had 14 wonderful years with her but even five months later the house still feels very empty...Bigger Sigh. Thank you for the visit and the comment and I am sending warm thoughts your way.
DeleteYep, this cards is all kinds of fabulous, to that cute doggie, the stack of books, and that awesome sentiment! Well done Sistah!
