I was having a sort out of some of my snippets of patterned papers, wondering if I should discard some of the smaller pieces but I just couldn't bring myself to put them into the recycling box. Instead I've used a couple of them to make this card using a stamp which I've had for some time although I have to confess it's not been used recently. I stamped it onto a die cut square of white card and again onto the two pieces of patterned paper so that I could neatly fussy cut the two dogs. For a bit of added interest I did some over stamping onto the background before sticking them into place, where according to the packaging they are 'waiting for their next adventure'. A fun card which I enjoyed putting together and making good use of some scraps.

That is a great dog stamp . . . I love the expressions on their faces - sitting there just waiting for someone to pull them along! Lovely card with the added extra of the paper piecing. xxx

A great finished card - I love it!
