Happy Howl-i-days

The weekend is approaching once again and I am really late tonight. Past my bedtime almost. But I wanted to get this card up.

This image and sentiment is the stamp of the month set from Imagine That! stamps called Happy Howlidays. Every year I make a dog card for a special dog and send it to her owners. They get such a big kick out of the cards I send for the dog. I used the pre-colored image from the set and then embellished the background with some additional clouds and Diamond Stickles on the snow beneath the dog. I also used Wink of Stella pen on the bows. I framed the sentiment after die cutting it with Spellbinders ATC Cards and then sponged with Salty Ocean distress ink. And the final element is the paw print. I die cut it from Paper Smooches Paw Print die. The little heart comes in the die se too and I added it and covered it with glossy accents. The background paper is embossed with the snowflake embossing folder. I used the sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches for inspiration.

I am entering these challenges:

• Imagine That Digi of the Month: use Happy Howlidays
• Tuesday Morning Sketches: sketch
• Simon Says Wednesday challenge: die crazy
• Inspiration Destination: anything goes
• Through the Craft Room Door: anything goes

My bed is calling me. Tomorrow is my last day of work for the year. Next week will be busy with prep for the holidays, which I haven't started yet. Oh man, why do I do this every year? Have an awesome Friday and thanks for stopping by.
