give a dog a bone IB139

  Good morning. This week's IB challenge is inspired by our four-legged friends, those with ears, tail, whiskers, and..... a bark :)  I, personally, have a black and tan hound and black pug and I love them so much, I couldn't imagine a day without their sweet faces and happy disposition.  So, naturally, I was super excited to create several cards inspired by this sweet photo prompt this week.  (I only managed to get pictures of one of the cards though, little forgetful before giving some out on National Dog's Day yesterday)

Isn't it so cute?  Four-legged friends, and fun patterns and colors!  I was inspired by the dog in the top right corner for my card.  I die-cut a dog using white cardstock and then used my distress inks and stamps to create the patterns and colors.  I really had a lot of fun creating this little guy and his friends and can't wait to see the amazing creations from the designers and in the gallery this week!

For the array of bones on the inspiration photo, I stamped paw prints in a light stone color.

And here's the sketch this week

punny sentiments

 Good morning.  This week's IB challenge is inspired by PUNS!  I love using puns on my cards and with all that we have going on in the world, who couldn't use a cute card with a giggle?

I ordered this cute set from CZ designs Let's Connect and it is so much fun to create cards and tags.  I have used several of the sentiments already, however this card had a very specific recipient in-mind and so I printed the pun on the inside with my printer.

Hello card

aren't these the cutest animals?

Inside reads:

 And here's the optional sketch this week if you don't have a pun in a stamp set or want to print one on your printer.
