Outlines Monday--Christmas in July! Bah Humpug!!!


 So glad you stopped in today  to see my Outlines Monday Challenge Christmas in July card!


Pugs??? Who doesn't love a pug?  My first dog was a pug and he was so lovable. Although he has been gone for years, I still have two pug grand-doggies! Sophie is a very light colored pug and Bud is darker, so I guess this card  is fashioned after our little naughty Sophie dog!


I colored up this cute Holiday Pooch and then added the glittered hat and ornament on dimensionals. I also added some wonderful Viva Pearl Pen dots for some creamy shine! These pens are really cool and come in many colors! I also added a small line under "Sophie" to "ground" her a little. If you have never tried a copic multi-liner, you must. I use mine all the time!


I did manage to cut into some of my very favorite DP ever for this creation. I love this wassail DP...such rich colors! Trying to change my paper hoarding ways I tell ya!



Please check out what the rest of the team has made for you today!  
Kecia, Jenny, Jeanne, Lisa,  Sandy and Robin !

    Oh how cute! Of course I'd have to color the image black and mask off one front leg because our Pug is all black and missing her right front leg.

    Oh my goodness, how adorable is this?! Even if it is a dog and not a cat, LOL! You've colored that little fella perfectly and paired him with some great papers. I'm with you on the paper hoarding thing, by the way! Have to keep reminding myself they will come out with more that I will love!
