Just Because

Hello crafters!   I selected a piece of pixied card from my craft stash.  The piece used Midnight Blue Pixie Powder on a piece of white gloss card.  I covered it with some cling film and scrunched it up and set it aside to dry overnight.  I removed the cling film which creates these pretty lines in the background.  Next I cut two of the Noble Lopped Ovals in white and matted them for the background.  I cut Milo in tan card and added the extra ear. I added the nose and eye with a fine tipped felt pen through the die.   I cut the dog blanket out of the leftover pixied card and glued it to his back.  I cut a smalll flower from it and glued it to his ear.  I cut an envleope in white and added a red heart and tucked it in his mouth.  I cut the Just Because sentiment in black and glued it to the top of the ovals and added some red hearts around it.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now. Sue x

Hi Sue. Isn't Milo so cute? He reminds me of another one of my friends dogs but she is called Miso as she was brought back from Japan with her.
