Puppy Face

The other day I wanted to place a little Thank You note in a pet clients home and got inspired to make a shaped card like a puppy face










Of course I had a last minute idea... I wanted the nose to look wet. So I applied crystal effects over it. But I didn't have enough time to wait for it to dry before I had run and let her dogs out. So the picture below shows the nose still milky

















But you can already tell how shiny it will be! For the inside of the card, I've cut a smaller heart and stamped "Thank You" on it and signed... BTW, the back is all covered with the same shapes as on front so you don't see the half cut shapes... looks a little more finished that way.

And in case you would like to see what handsome little feller inspired me... meet Guinness:

Not the usual Greeting Card

… I would say! I thought about if I should share this birthday card with you guys or not, but decided you might at least enjoy the artsy look…

My friend Sandra’s birthday was about a week ago and last night we went out to eat, and I couldn’t wait for her to see her birthday card. She is one of my shooting buddies. Part of her birthday gift was a gift card to our weekly hang-out so she can add it to her 9mil funds. Of course I wanted a “matching” card to put it in.

Here is the outside:

I found an SVG file of the gun and modified to make it into an actual card that opens and cut it out with my silhouette cameo. It started out with gray textured cardstock because I had run out of black 12x12 CS. So then I did a little “direct to paper” with my black inkpad and then stamped Beautiful Baroque and Hello Doily over it randomly with white StazOn ink… sponged the edges with silver encore ink. You can click on the picture to see the details better…

The inside has a greeting and the “holster” for the gift card:
