Today’s project shows some versatility with the Christmas Scottie. I needed a rainbow card for a friend and the scottie fit perfectly.
Stamps
The Christmas Scottie stamp set is a sweet set with versatility. And that is something I love. Plus it is a one stamp set card. The thought behind this card is the memory of the sweet Scottie ready to go for his daily walk. The background plaid is stamped using Tahitian Tide and I love the brightness of it. Sad occasions do not require subdued colors in my opinion. And this card could be for an adopted new pet as well.
The Scottie is stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and the Stamparatus. Since I stamped directly on the plaid, it required a few stampings. The Stamparatus is ideal for this! By stamping multiple times over the plaid, I did not have the white area around the pup should I have punched the image.
Papers
To finish the Scottie I added his bow using the In Color Glimmer Paper from the Annual Catalog. The bow is part of the Scottie Dog Punch. This Glimmer paper is so beautiful and adds just enough sparkle. Plus the little Rhinestone gives him some bling! For the background paper, I went with the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper. This is a “reverse” side of the all pumpkins sheet. To bring in the Tahitian Tide I used the Tahitian Tide Stampin’ Blend to color between the smaller diagonal lines. It was just enough.
Finishes
To complete this card I wanted the sentiment to pop. Even though this is a Christmas set, this lovely sentiment is part of the Christmas Scottie stamp set. It is stamped on White with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then the ends were flagged with my Paper Snips. To complete the card I used some of the In Color Bakers Twine that is a mix of White and Tahitian Tide. It is intended to represent a leash with it being attached to the color and the little hand grip hanging down.
