Paws & Kisses

Hello crafters!  For today's card, I started by cutting the Paws & Kisses sentiment about sixteen or seventeen times out of Azure blue card.  I covered a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet, peeled the backing paper off then started to add the sentiments randomly around the edges of it.  Once I was finished, I filled in the remaining sticky areas with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  Next I cut the matting for the focal element.  I used the Double Stitched Squares and cut a larger black die cut, then used the Azure Blue as the middle mat and finally added a white die cut on top.  I attached them to the background with mounting foam.  I cut the Pet Pal Max out of tan card. I used a black felt tipped pen to colour in the black areas of his fur. I shadowed his muzzle lightly Gathered Twigs distress ink.  I added an azure blue neckerchief to his neck.  I cut a white envelope and added a blue heart to it then attached it in his mouth.  I added a few more hearts around his heart that I glittered with Western Blue polished silk glitter.  The last Paws & Kisses sentiment I cut was shadowed in black and added to a white shadow backing piece then added to the area above Max.  The card was completed with white, black and azure blue card.  The finished dimension are 7 3/4"  x  9"  in size.
