Our lovely Paula chose challenge #144---all about Feeling Blue-that means using the color blue or being unwell or sad...It's all up to you!
I used a fun sketch from Just Us Girls Challenge Blog to begin this card and lovely teresa collins designer papers. Between the two- this card was a breeze! I love it when a card comes together so easily!
I stamped Biggly three times, once for the base, once to cut out to add with dimensionals, and the third layer being just the paw holding the cake-again layered with dimensionals. Before I added on all the layers, I smudged on some tan chalk around the bottom image and then added the layers. The image panel is also up on dimensionals. I use those things like crazy LOL!
And HEY---We have some great prizes for this challenge-
