I Miss You!

Hey crafty friends! I'm in the middle of packing, (I know, I know, it's one in the morning), but I needed a break and thought I'd share with you the cards I made for this week's fun sketch challenge at Peachy Keen Stamps!


I had so much fun with this sketch that I decided to make two cards instead of one!


Okay, okay, so even though the sketch was really fun to play with, I made two of the same card for two coworkers that chipped in and put together a really sweet gift basket for me on my last night of work. I was super happy Peachy Keen shipped the brand new Howling Puppy stamp set so fast, because it came just in time to create for this challenge! Better yet, both of my former *tear* coworkers are dog lovers and I'm missing them already, so this set couldn't have been more perfect!


I colored the puppy using Copics E13, E15, E17, and E18, and added some Nut Brown Flower Soft to his ears and tail. It was my first time using Flower Soft and I absolutely loved it! You'll definitely be seeing more of it on future projects. :) 


Papers on both of these cards are from Echo Park's "Springtime" collection, and I used some soft pink ribbon from my stash along with enamel dots as embellishments. The sentiment is also from the Howling Puppy set. 

Back to work... thanks for reading! :)
