Dog Sympathy

My niece and her family lost their dog of 17 years.  Once again I tried coloring like her dog, that was really hard since he had many stripes of colors in his hair.


I used my homemade cloud stencil for the background and then stamped my grass stamp and went over it with a sponge for the grass.  Added a die cut fence and tree with punched leaves on it.

Newton's nook designs - Fetching Friendship stamp, colored w/markers
Poppystamps - Picket fence die
Memory Box - Bare Sapling die
Leaf punch
D.R.S. designs - Easy Grass background stamp
Cloud Stencil, homemade



Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

This card has it all! Simply adorable and beautiful.
