Hey lovelies!
Are you all preparing for Christmas yet? There have been so many amazing sets being released lately it's hard not to think about the holidays! I couldn't wait to dive in to this lot of cuties from the Mama Elephant "Yappy Woofmas" set! I have two dogs of my own, meaning I have a serious soft spot when there's a new set filled with cute dogs!

I stamped my images using Memento Tuxedo black ink and coloured them using my alcohol markers. I ended up only using three of them for this card and set the others aside for a separate project! I added blush to their cheeks with a pink coloured pencil, as well as details and highlights using a white gel pen before fussy cutting them out.

I die cut a panel using the Mama Elephant "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts and cut some windows on my panel with the Lawn Fawn "Outside In Stitched Heart Stackables" dies to keep with the stitched theme! Once I was finished with die cutting I splattered some silver and pale gold metallic watercolour paint on my panel, unfortunately this doesn't show too well in photos but it adds a lovely shimmer to the card when it hits the light!

I used Evergreen Bough Distress Oxide ink and blended it on to some white card stock before spraying it with my distress sprayer. I cut this in to sections to become the backgrounds of the windows in my panel!

I stamped my sentiment from Lawn Fawn's "Winter Skies" set directly on to my panel using Versafine Onyx Black ink, coated it in clear embossing powder and set with my heat tool. I adhered the backgrounds to the smaller hearts directly against the back of the panel, but added some foam tape for the larger heart to add some depth. I popped my little dogs in place and adhered my panel to my card base!

Thanks for reading lovelies! I'm sure I'm going to get a lot of use from this set this year! There are so many adorable images I haven't even used yet!
