Birthday Dirt

We had a beautiful day today! The temps were a little warmer but there was a chilly stiff wind. I did get to walk for a bit at lunch. I think we are supposed to have rain for the next few days. My card tonight is for a birthday. This one probably leans to the masculine side.

This adorable little pup is obviously getting into trouble. I just loved the sentiment that came with the set at From the Heart Stamps. The set is called Digging Dog. I colored the image with Copic markers and inked the bottom of the image with Mowed Lawn distress ink. I printed the sentiment and then used Mowed Lawn ink and Desert Sands ink to blend the sentiment strip. Finished it off with a banner with some paw prints on it from Paper Smooches. I used the sketch from i {heart} sketches with a twist #144.

The twist is to make a masculine card. I think I could use this for a masculine birthday without a problem! 

I am entering these challenges:

• I {heart} sketches with a twist #144: sketch and masculine card
• Stamp of the Month challenge (From the Heart): use the Digging Dog
• Simon Says Wednesday challenge: cute and cuddly
• Through the Craft Room Door: anything goes

That's it for me this evening. We had our daughter and son in law over for dinner this evening so I didn't get much time to play tonight. I need a sympathy card so I'd better get a move on. Thanks for stopping by and see you again soon.
