My Best Friend
I can name at least 2 sets of friends in my life that “need” this card. They’re dalmation-lovers, of course! This adorable dalmation is found in the “Large Breed” set from Hanna Stamps …. a new set to be released this Friday! The great thing about this set is that it is all about large breed dogs. This is just a “sneak peek” though …. so I won’t name all of the dogs found as yet. *wink* And that sentiment? That’s from the “My Best Friend” set also to be released this Friday! I just love the paws stamp too!
My layout is from the SCS FS57 challenge this week. Paris O’Tremba is this week’s featured stamper. I was tickled to meet Paris a couple of years ago while at the Milwaukee Stampin’ Up! Regionals. What a dynamite young woman with a dazzling exuberance! The colors are from this week’s SCS Color Challenge, CC157, using Purely Pomegranate, Basic Gray, & Basic Black. I don’t happen to have Basic Gray, so I substituted the retired Going Gray. As soon as I read the color challenge, I reached for this set. The “dog tag” for the sentiment is an “Avery” tag found at the local office supply store.
Thanks for being patient viewers! I’m on the rebound from a very yucky cold/flu that struck on the night of our recent weird snowfall here. Today was the day that I only used about 1/5 box of tissues … what an improvement!
I used a couple of different types of masking on this card … and am working on a masking tutorial. So please be sure to check back later this week for that addition! Thanks for stopping by today!

What a great card, Bev. Love all the reds! Sorry to hear you were under the weather. But so glad that you are on the rebound!
This is ADORABLE!!!!! Oh I hope there is a Lab in the set! I have two Chocolate Labs and I have yet to find any cute Lab stamps. (Fingers crossed) 😉
Hope you are feeling much better soon!
Very, very cute. It’s not a Lab but it is still cute!! 🙂
Hope your feeling better sweetie!

I love everything Dalamatian, especially as our 13 year old dal Sophie is coming towards the end of her life *sniffsniff*.
Wonderful card!
