Angus The Wee Dog



I bought this Sugar Nellie stamp in the 50% off sale at Funky Kits. He's small, but boy has he been worth his £1.50! I love him and so far he's been the sole attraction on his own cards as opposed to a pet for some of my other girly stamps.

Anyway he's certainly the centre of attention on this one, no papers or bling to hide behind. Just Angus, some embossing, a touch of lace and some card candi & some twine. Looking at my card posted, a little bone charm would look perfect on the twine cross. Unfortunately I only have fish for my catty cards so we'll just have to imagine!



He's now entering the following challenges;
Sketch Saturday - Their lovely sketch
Ladybug Crafts Ink - Animals - Of which he is!
Party Time Tuesday - Animals - Woof!
Crafty Emma's Store - Embossing - Circles & Hearts. Jx

LOVE this!! B&W are one of my all time favorite color combos and I love embossing. A lot of time I'll use embossing instead of DP as you've done here. The little dog is adorable. Fantastic layout too. Thanks for joining us at Party Time Tuesdays. Hope to see you again soon. You're very talented and your blog is wonderful!
