Sorry for your loss, Create a Critter & Paper doll Dressup - Pet Sympathy Card

So I am not the greatest at keeping this blog updated because I have a 2 year old little girl who refuses to sleep lately. I plan on trying to tell more about my projects from now , I am typing this waiting for my stickles to dry and also tyring to keep my little girl entertained its waaaay past her bedtime but you could never tell.




I really REALLY wish I had the peaschy keen stamps to go along with the animals on Create a Critter, but sadly I just dont have the cash to buy them right now but eventually I will have to buy them and re-make this card . Have you ever done that?? after I bought my Every day faces set pk 490 for my paper dolls I re made everything I used that cartridge with because the faces just bring it to life.




If you havent seen them you need to check them out at http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/




Anyways for this project I used Create a Critter and cut the cute little dog on page 34.


I cut it at 2.5" and also added some pink scraps behind the ears .




For the cloud and halo I used the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge page 75


I used Ds and kinda messed with them a bit to make the shapes the exact size I wanted .




I inked the edges of my paper, and my cloud. Added some detail with gel pens and put it all together.




Hope you like it

  2. What a sweet puppy, and creative putting him in doggie heaven! The loss of a pet is such a hard thing to get through. Your card came out very cute though! As a mom of a 2 yr old, I completely understand what you're going through! ;)

  3. Yep still teary! I showed my kids and they love it too! THANK YOU! If you wouldn't mind posting it on my CNS Fan Page too?

    We had a great idea, since we want another dog "one day" but don't want a dog unless it's Apollo. We are going to go back to our breeder and get a puppy in his bloodline, so his family. So maybe a litter next year? This way we can feel closer and it's ok. BAH...SO HARD TO THINK ABOUT IT!!!!

    Really, Thank you<3

  5. That is a really nice card. I think sending cards to people when they lose a pet is so important. I had a friend lose her dog and my card meant so much to her family. They were broken hearted. :*(
    Your card is meaningful, but still brings a smile because it's so cute too. I think it's super!
