SMILE

I created this little guy for The Ribbon Girls Mary wanted to make a sneaky card for Andrea, they got a new puppy and Mary asked me to draw a Westie puppy so she could surprise her :)

I've coloured him with Copics in pastel shades, it's a white dog so I needed some subtle off whites for shading.

I've used a simple layout with pastel papers to showcase the image.  To take off some of the white of the image I've distressed the edge with Spun sugar ink from Tim Holtz.

The pink ribbon you can find at The Ribbon Girls shop, I hand tied the bow and then tied it to a strip of ribbon to go across the card.

To keep with my favourite pastels my papers are from Lemoncraft and Craft & You

Thank you for visiting today
