Sweet Puppies

I was in a quandary.  The OLW challenge this week was to use a cat or dog on a card.  Yikes!  I don't have any cat or dog stamps!  I have some mice and thought of putting the mouse with the cat out of the picture, but I didn't really think I could get away with that! 

Then I remembered a blog I had visited a while back.  This very talented gal, Torico, draws beautifully and has some free digis on her blog.  I checked it out and found these sweet puppies.  Who could resist?  She also has some adorable digis for sale on Etsy.  Here's a link to Torico's blog.  Go ahead and take a look.  You'll be glad  you did!

Aren't these little guys so sweet? Torico colored hers much better in blonde shades.  I had a problem with the ink smudging.  Evidently the Stampin' Up! card stock doesn't accept the ink from my printer very well.  Hence, we have a litter of gray puppies instead of black & white.  I colored them with Prismacolor pencils and blended with odorless turpentine and cotton swabs.  The sentiment stamp is a renegade that was hiding in my drawer.

The F4A challenge at SCS today is a Free for All, literally.  We could do anything on a card as long as there's something that's free.  This stamp qualifies.  Yippee!

Stamps:  Sweet Puppies (Torico's Digi)

Ink:  Basic Black

Paper:  Whisper White

I hope you'll have a great weekend.  We'll be spending some time with the grandkids so I doubt I'll get to stamp much.
