The Details

Seriously, don’t you just melt looking into those puppy dog eyes? Basset hounds are just the sweets and funniest little guys. They do stare at you like they love you like no other. I keep the card simple with just a Copic colored pup and thinking of you heart bubble. So perfect to send to let someone know you care.

Copic colors: E51, E31, E33

Not only is he cute, but he has a matching die to make fussy cutting so easy!!!

Glowing Background: This is such a great technique to draw attention to your featured image. Start by ink blending with a light yellow color and blend out with a trio of greens. I stamped the Lattice background first in my darkest color and added some Copic marker shading to the wood slats to help them pop a little.

Copic colors: N3, N4

      Oh poor baby. Then this little card is for him with some hugs so he feels better right quick.
