The card I made today was inspired for a dear friends. I needed to make a simpathy card but nothing I had really expressed my feelings and all felt superficial at the time. Creating a simpathy card in the moment is one of the hardest projects I've had for a while and it ended up taking me a week to complete working on it here and there ad not knowing if it would ever be enough. Anyway, I finally settled on knowing it was for a good friend and she'd probably appreciate anything I could send. :D
Two of the imgages I used are from the New Releases this week which I combined for the dog - Kiara and Angel Accessories, both from Little Miss Muffet Stamps. Then in the background I merged it with Timber Top Ridge from Make it Crafty. I drew the dog lookint at Staffordshire Bull Terriers but I think he can be used for any bulldog types.
I think adding the embellishments on this card took just as long as drawing and coloring the imgages. LOL I'd add something and it just wouldn't look right so I'd add something else and let it sit for a day. This took several days, as I had mentioned, however, this is the ed result. It may notbe the most perfect card I had made but I rather like how it turned out - so I was finally able to send it off. :D









Gorgeous card.

Barbara this is so sweet and is such a nice sympathy card. I am sure she will love it...it is just perfect in every way :)
ReplyDeleteI JUST noticed the angel wings on the dog, and think this is an awesome pet sympathy card. When my dog died, a friend who I barely saw stopped by and left a card in my mailbox. He didn't ring the bell or anything, but seeing that card meant a whole lot to me...
ReplyDeleteThat is so beautiful
