This Dog Makes Me Smile

Seriously. This dog stamp just makes me smile and feel all warm inside. I think it’s because it reminds me of my dog so much. Tucker (on left sidebar) would completely do the same thing as this dog. As a matter of fact, he sleeps like this. On his back, with his legs splayed, and flat against the bed. I don’t know that he’s ever had a bee on his nose, but if he did, he’d introduce himself and offer him a warm place to sleep. I’m certain of it; that’s just what Tucker does.

This card is for my Mom. She doesn’t read this blog, so no worries of her seeing it before it gets to her. Phew. :O) She sent Tucker a present, and he’s sending her this thank you card. No comments please. It’s her only grandchild, let us play this silly game, okay?

I used two new (to me!) techniques in this card. I masked the main image. And then I airbrushed him with my Copics. Wow. That was FUN. Have to work on that technique though. The sky isn’t so “sky-like”. It’s good enough, for my first try. I’ll keep working on that particular subject.
