I enjoyed making a card with this spider web. It was easily scalable and printed well.
I have to be honest, I have not been able to use this digi yet, but hope to soon and it's so cute!

Hello, it’s Sandy again.
Today I have a card that I created with the Dog and Butterfly
digital stamp.
I didn’t change the size of the .jpg but I thought that since I was going to be printing it, I
would add a sentiment. I like punny saying so this one is perfect for this card.
As I have done in the past, after I print the illustration, I covered the dog and butterfly
with a sticky note that has adhesive over the back of most of it, and then ran the paper
through the printer again to create a mask.
Once my mask was cut out and applied, I used the On Solid Ground stamp from My
Favorite Things to place the ground. I then masked that off so I could start my ink
blending.
For the grass, I used Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink along with the
Grassy Stencil from Lawn Fawn. After the ink was set, I added a little of the Twisted
Citron behind the grass blade to create a little more ground area. With Stormy Sky
Distress Oxide Ink, I laid in the clouds using the Cloudy Stencil from Lawn Fawn. I then
speckled the sky with some watered-down ink. In retrospect, I wish I hadn’t done that
because it does take away from the sentiment. Oh well, next time, right?
All the coloring is done with Copic markers in the following colors:
Y11, Y21, YR23, YR24 – dog
E31, E37, E47 – rocks and ground
R14, R29, R39 – dog collar
G07 – grass blades
RV52, RV55 – butterfly
Once it was colored, I used a 4” x 5 ¼” stitched edge die to cut it out. I like to use this die because I like
to have a border around my cards. I chose a pink colored card stock to bring out the little butterfly.
I really enjoy using digital stamps because they are so quick to make and take very minimal supplies.
I hope you have been inspired to create a card of your own.
Thanks for stopping by and remember to “Paws And Enjoy The Little Things”!

The mice are just precious on this sweet fall set.
