Not every card is a Pop-up


A while ago I came across a card similar to this on YouTube, and couldn't resist making my own version.  I just LOVE the dog.  The entire stamp set is quite cute!  It's "My Favorite Things # BB13, you make my tail wag" stamp set.  Dies are also available.  






On the front of the card, I cut out a circle, and stamped around it with the paw prints from the stamp set.  I used two different colors for interest.  The sentiment is from another stamp set, Stampendous #SSC1223.  It has various "dog" sayings and is great!

I put clear acetate over the circle cutout on the inside.  The dog was colored, cut out and pasted over the opening. 




The inside has the rest of the dog!  And, yes, that's part of the set!  Cute...huh? I cut out a circle frame, and glued it over the acetate, and added the Dog's face.  The sentiment is from the same set as the "Yappy Birthday" from the front of the card.  

On the right hand side of the card, I masked off a circle, and using distress inks, worked in the sky and the grass, then sprinkled water on it and blotted it off to get some texture.  

I added a few grass patches with alcohol markers, as well as a shadow under the dog house, which was also part of the same stamp set as the dog.  

These are two really fun stamp sets, and I've gotten a lot of use out of them  If you're into puppies, these are the stamps for you!
