Just Because
Hello there my crafty friends! I started todays card by cutting the Delicate Daisies Complete
Petals die set. I cut the various sized flowers out of old rose card, blush card
and Raspberry card. I covered a piece of white card with a
sticky adhesive sheet, then peeled the backing paper off and began to attach the
various sizes and colours of flowers to the background. I sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Gitterbitz
over the remaining exposed sticky areas. I cut two of the Stained Glass
Rectangles out of white card and matted them together. I cut Rufus out of tan card, including
the separate head die. While leaving it
in the die, I used a fine tipped black felt pen to draw in the eyes and nose. I attached the head with mounting foam. I cut a white envelope and added a pink heart to it then tucked it into his mouth. I cut the crown out of raspberry card
and glued it to his head. I cut a bone in white and glued to his paw. I made a flower using the small and
medium sized flowers from the Delicate Daisies set. I added a pearl to the centre and seated the flower
in the lower left corner with green leaves. I cut the Just Because sentiment out of raspberry
card and glued to the top of the Stained Glass Rectangles. The card was completed with white
mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 9" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue.

Hi Sue. Although I love all the pet dies I think that Rufus is my favourite. He is so cute and reminds me of my friend's dog.
