Just Because

Hello bloggers!  I brought out the Dots N' Stripes paper pad to start today's card.  I cut one inch strips of each of three colours from the paper pad and added them across a piece of card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet.  Next I cut two of the Looped Ovals in white and matted them together.  I cut Pet Pal Dottie in white and used a fine tipped black marker to colour in her spots and face.  I used the blue dotty paper from the paper pad and cut her doggie sweater out of it and glued it on her.  I cut a white envelope and added a pink heat and attached it in her mouth.  I added her to the Looped Ovals with mounting foam and added some more pink hearts above her head as accents.  I cut the Just Because sentiment out of the blue dotty paper then added it to a white shadow backing die cut.  I added it with mounting foam to the top of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  7 1/2" in size. 





 All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue, another fabulous card with the Pet Pal dies. Dottie is one of my favourites, and the pastel colours are super. Bx

Hi Sue. I love Dottie. She always looks as though she is ready to play in that pose. I am sure a card like this would cheer anyone up.

Good Morning Sue and all that visit today. When I opened up today I thought this was a baby card ... Mainly because of the colour scheme. But on closer inspection I see it's not. It's a gorgeous doggie card and I love it. I love how he is delivering good news ... Maybe the news of a new baby or puppy. 🙂 Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Please stay safe and well 🙏. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
