Just Me and My Puppy


Hello Crafty Friends! It's Laurie here! It is starting to feel like summer! So, I am sharing Just Me and My Puppy as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using Emmas Sweet Friend enjoying an ice cream cone together! 

The Details of Just Me and My Puppy

I just love this sweet digital stamp which reminded me of my puppy So, I coloured him with my Copic markers to look like my Jesse Pup. To match Jesse, I coloured Emma to look like me so that my card looked like my puppy and me! So fun!

For my card, I decided to use the Pampered Pooch Collection by Photo Play with its bright colours and puppy theme. Even the sentiment “furrever friends” is a sticker from that collection.

Next, I added a die cut white wooden fence using the Wood Textured Specialty Paper to add some interest to the background and balance out my card.

Since they are sharing an ice cream cone, I thought I would build a double scooped one with sprinkles and a heart rhinestone that I coloured red with my Copic marker. I even coloured the punched-out ice cream with my Copic markers to give it definition.

To balance out the ice cream cone, I added a MDF heart with a paw print inside which I placed beside my sentiment and layered a die cut heart beneath it.

Finally, for embellishments, I added a scattering of red rhinestones and used Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen for the dog tag.

Back to School Ellie by Noelene

Hello Crafty Friends, Noelene back today with some D.T. inspiration for the Paper Nest Dolls

For my card today I am using the cute PND Back to School Ellie stamp. This image is perfect to create Thank you or Birthday cards to a special teacher.




I created my card on a 5"x7" base & cut my coloured panels & layered. I created my sentiment in my Silhouette program & cut it out with black vinyl as I was not able to print it onto my notebook paper. I then transfered it onto my card into place. I cut with my Silhoutee, put together & glued my book stack. After colouring my image & creating my book stack I adhered these down using some foam tape for dimension. Lastly I used some enamel sprinkles to embellish.




Copics:
Clothes & Shoes & Cat: R22, R24, R27, R29, C1, C2, C4, C6
Skin: E0000, E000, E00, E11, R20
Books: G05, YR16, B24, Y18, C1
Hair: E50, E53, E57, E59
