Lili of the Valley Challenge

What a lovey sunny morning it is here in Gozo ! Sunbathing weather ( Tho I don't do that !! I shadebathe :-))
Anyway on to this weeks Lili Of the Valley Challenge We are asked to make a card using the following gorgeous sketch :-)




Having just been to the UK I treated myself to a couple of Lili Of the Valley stamps so that I could make my GD cards using their stuff, only fair I thought !!
I chose this lovely 'Patch' which I bought online from the Glitter Pot isn't he gorgeous, I also bought a DCWV paper pad 'Pets' which I used for the circles on this card :-)The background flowers are a Whiff of Joy stamp. The paw print background is from Doodlebug I think !!



I coloured the image with copics and 3D'd him :-)
The paw print ribbon is from Meiflower, the sentiment is from the Clare Curd sentiment set and the frame is SU. The little bell under his chin is from papermania :-) I could do with some small dog tag charms ,,, need to go on a hunt ! Does anyone know where they might sell those ?? :-)

The Design team and fellow Guest Designer, Claire, have made some really gorgeous creations to give you inspiration so pop over to the challenge blog to see them :-)

Thanks for looking, I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)

Hi Lorraine! What a great interpretation of this week's sketch. Love the bell! Glad you are enjoying all the sunshine, I am getting rusty from all the rain here in Scotland, still I am not letting that spoil my holiday - found some craft shops...

Awwww adorable card Lorraine, love all the detail and the doggie is way to cute.

Our weather is good for ducks lately, but optimistic that the weathermen are right about a glorious bank holiday weekend.
