The Dogs Have IT! It's Dog Day at Petaloo
Now to avoid fur-balls flying in the air, I decided to post my cat and dog cards on separate days. In my house, the cats will not put up with any dog shenanigans. Yes I know that many households around the world have dogs and cats living in blissful harmony. That's just not the situation at my house.
My cats may not love dogs, but I certainly do. So to get even, I am posting the dog cards first. Cats have to wait their turn and are featured here.
I had so much fun that I created a variety of cards and even a quick step-by-step for one of them. 
This little pup is my first card. I used a few sizzix dies by Tim Holtz for my cards. This one uses the negative space from the die. I thought it made a lovely silhouette.
The Petaloo Botanica Baby Blooms in Purple are so striking with the purple/blue of my paper - which is Doodlebug Design Puppy Love.
This is my second card with a tiny DIY step-by-step.
Before I move on to the DIY instructions, I will tell you a little about the card.
The papers are once again Doodlebug Design Puppy Love as is the teal and brown "Woof" washi tape.
The flowers I chose for this card were Petaloo Chantilly Hydrangea in Red.
The red and brown hydrangea's looked marvelous with my crazy brown pup.
Die or punch your choice of cardstock or patterned paper.
Cover a plain piece of cardstock with washi tape.
Place the die cut over the washi tape...and continue on with your embellished elements.
It's THAT EASY!
The words on this card make me laugh. "Ruff Day?" Way too darling. This puppy is waiting to cheer you up.
This little card has a sweet Petaloo Butterfly from the Darjeeling Teastained collection in blue as well as Petaloo Teastained Dahlias in Blue
My last card of the day is the only card that doesn't use Doodlebug's Puppy Love collection.
This is Graphic 45 Botanicabella Collection - full of warm browns and oranges.
I thought it would be perfect for the negative image of the Crazy Dogs die ( Sizzix and Tim Holtz).
I used the Petaloo Chantilly Hydrangea Red in this card as well, but focused on the green and brown flowers in that package - I used the red flowers on my first card above.
I'll be back tomorrow for Cat Day!
