Happy Saturday! I’m excited to join in a very special blog hop called Charity Blog Hop hosted by the amazing Sandy Allnock. If you came from the uber talented Carly’s blog, you are right on track!
I created a dog themed card inspired by my own card design, window frame card with cats. I hope you are not tired of seeing a similar card. 😉
As you may already know, I have two adorable cats that I adopted three years ago from a local shelter. So this time I wanted to do something good to dogs in need. I donated $35 to Humane Society International by buying a symbolic humane gift that helps street dogs.
Click HERE to buy a humane gift that allows you to give meaningful gifts to your friends and family — or simply as your way of helping animals for a special occasion.
To create my card, I used the Woof stamp set and Woof frame cuts from Hero Arts along with a few ombre inks: Neon Chartreuse to Blue, Mint to Green, Neon Yellow to Orange, Neon Red to Purple, Neon Chartreuse to Blue.
I heat embossed the sentiment from the Birthday Animal Silhouettes stamp set with white embossing powder. Then I popped it up on the card front using foam tape. I finished off my card with some black gemstones to add interest.
If you would like to know how I created my card, please watch my video tutorial above or in HD at my YouTube channel. It’s not the exact same card, but the card making process is pretty same.
