lab-adore you! card.

I bought this super cute Lab stamp set from Newton's Nook a few weeks ago and hadn't had a chance to play with it yet.


I was inspired by the Inky Paws challenge to use polka dots + City Crafter challenge 377 - monotone coloring. Chocolate Labs are my favorite so I already knew I was going to color these guys brown with distress inks and my Tim Holtz water brush. They do make coordinating dies for this stamp set, but for some crazy reason I didn't purchase them, so I fussy cut this guy. Then I stamped him again on polka dot paper and fussy cut his little handkerchief.

This entire card was made using scraps - love when that happens! Here's one last look at my little chocolate Lab.
Thanks for stopping by! :)
