Heard You're Feeling "RUFF"



Good morning everyone! Before I get to my card I just want to say THANK YOU to all the men and women that help protect our country everyday. I also want to say that I will never forget the tremendous service these people provided us on 9/11. God Bless You All!
This is the card that I made to enter into Tacky Tuesdays challenge. This time the challenge is to use a dog and the words "RUFF" or "WOOF".
I cut the dog from Everyday Paper Dolls at 3.5 inches and stamped his face with a Peachy Keen Wide Eyed and Bushy Tailed face stamp. I didn't want the tear so I masked that off before I stamped it. I chalked around the edges and used a black and white pen to do the highlighting. The thermometer was cut from Smiley Cards and the bed was cut from Four Legged Friends. I printed the sentiment off my computer and added "tissues" to his bed. I did this by cutting small squares of tissue paper and crumpling them up to look like a tissue. I pop dotted the top layer of the bed and glued the tissues in between the layers.
I hope you all are having a wonderful day and thanks for looking!

    Hey GiGi, This is adorable!! I love it! I couldn't agree with you more about the men and women who work so hard, and are so unbelievably UNDER paid!! I missed coming to your blog, I had to take the summer off, because my daughter had surgery, the boys were home for the summer, and a whole pile of other stuff that kept me away, but my daughter is back at college, and the boys are back in school, and everything else is taken care of,(evn if it is not) I am back, and missed your blog!! Karen♥

    I love your blog. You have some of the best cards and ideas I've seen. I had a question about a previous project you did. The mini baby album you made. Did you use chipboard for your pages, or just paper? Also what size did you make your album? Thanks and keep up your amazing projects.

    Thanks everyone! Sarag, the album was a 5.5 X 6 and yes I used chipboard. But I am making another one and am using recycled cereal box's. I just cut 2 layers for each page and glue them together. Hope this helps!
