Dog Lover's Birthday.


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday.
The theme this time is to use a square card, or play along, as I've done, with the anything goes birthday option. (I don't have any sqaure cards or envelopes!)




The design team and our party guest have some wonderful cards to inspire you, so I hope you get the chance to play along!

I made this card for a friend who is a real dog lover!
I spread grit paste through a stencil , then coloured it with some infusions and a spritz of water.
I used distress inks for the sky and grass, and the dog was stamped in versafine, clear embossed, fussy cut and coloured with Prismacolor pencils.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Addicted to Stamps & More where the theme is anything goes.



Simon Says Stamp Wednesday where it's also anything goes.

Watercooler Wednesday all about occasions.



AAA Birthday where it's a masculine theme.



Supplies:
 Tim Holtz tiles layering stencil; grit paste; PaperArtsy infusions; Katzelkraft dog stamp; versafine ink, clear ep; Prismacolor pencils; distress inks; Paper smooches balloons die; birthday sentiment sticker.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x
