This week you should use "cats & dogs" on your card. Boy.. this card was already finished and submitted to Deb and Andrea, otherwise i would have loved to sent yesterdays card in :-) However.. Rufus is adorable. I think he is one of the MUST-have animal/accessory stamps Magnolia has to offer. I have used him quite a lot on cards and projects.
Since the image was really fast colored, i thought I'd give the DP some extra texture and sewed also along the lines of the DP (the diagonals). When i made my first "bite mark" cards i had a couple of emails how i created these. You can read about it here: Card for Gizmo
Stamp: Rufus Magnolia (Shabby Chic 2008), Paw print (i believe Inkadinkadoo Joanns), Sentiment: In my thoughts by Stampin up
Paper/CS: Serenic Route, Stampin up: Tangerine Tango, Kiwi Kiss and Chocolate Chip, Aqua painter
Tools: Sewing Machine, various Circle punches, Word Window punch
Embellishments: Heidi Swapp green rhinestone sticker, Hemp Stampin up, Eyelet: Making Memories, Ribbon: Stampin up
Coloring: Ink: Stampin up re-inkers and Chocolate Chip, black Stazon
I love Rufus! and your card would be great for a man with those lovely warm chocolate tones.
