Today’s new challenge at Cardz 4 Guys #314 has a theme of “pets.” This gives a lot of options, but just make sure that your card is appropriate for a guy!
I made the background by blending rainbow colors on some card stock and then die cut it with a cover plate. I die cut it again but on a white piece of cardstock and used the rainbow colored stars to inlay where the white stars were removed. I saved the border and fit that on the card base as well.
I used an image from a set by My Favorite Things, and found a sentiment that I think any dog lover would agree with!
