Hello, hello and welcome! In my family \”puppy\” cards are always a hit and I created this one for Watercooler Wednesday\’s Challenge. Kath is our hostess this week and we would love for you to play along.
For Christmas and Birthdays, my daughters like to receive a collection of handmade cards that they can give throughout the year. Kristen has the most adorable Corgi named Newton so I know she will like this Corgi themed set.
This is a simple CAS card with a pop of dimension from the sequins. A nice thing about this card is that it is appropriate to send to just about anyone….it can be a masculine card, for a child or a girlfriend.
The stamp set is Corgi2stamp from Stamps of Life. I made four versions of this card, but this one is colored with Copic markers and embellished with cheerful red sequins.

My daughter has the most adorable Corgi, so I wanted her birthday card to feature her beloved \”Newton\”. I recently purchased the MFT Lucky Dog set so that I would have a Corgi stamp. I thought a clean and simple card with just Newton colored (and emphasized) would be a fun look.
I am happy with the way the card turned out and am entering it in several challenges:
Muse Challenge 271 (focusing on the dog, birthday and \”subjects in a row\” themes)
MFT Birthday Project Challenge
Thanks for stopping by!

I have two daughters and I wanted to send them each a personalized card. My youngest has blond hair and lives with a 95 pound rescue dog named \”Tank\”.
My oldest has brown hair and lives with the most adorable Corgi named \”Newton\”.
I\’ve entered my card in: Addicted to Stamps Make Your Mark Challenge Link
I used SSS Abby\’s Spring Showers for each of the girls and MFT Lucky Dog for both pups. I colored each card with Copic Markers. I also \”made my mark\” and colored in the sentiment for a brighter look.

I have been sending cards to a friend with cancer, but now that his prognosis is terminal, I have changed the type of handmade card I am creating. Get well cards are no longer appropriate, but I still want my friend to know I am thinking about him. My friend loves dogs (and dogs love him!) so I thought this cute Corgi would help brighten his day. I used the MFT (My Favorite Things) Lucky Dog stamp set with the great sentiment \”Just Bepaws I Care\”.
I am entering this card in the CAS on Friday Challenge #132 where the prompt this week is \”Cute\”. Very few things are cuter that a Corgi.
I Stamped the Corgi, colored him in with Copic Markers and then fussy cut the pup. Next, I embossed the sentiment on black card stock. I thought a clean and simple layout would work best so that the emphasis was on the dog and the sentiment.
