This week's Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge is a Picture Perfect challenge based on the picture seen above. I was inspired by the house in the photo and the pretty blue accent color, too.
I used the Dog Icons dies to make a dog house for my focal image. Every dog house needs a dog, so I made mine with the Paws for a Cause stamp set and matching Paws Cause Icons dies. The dog house and dog were arranged on a blue card base on top of a strip of "grass" cut with one of the Backdrop Builders dies. To fill out the scene, I added a pair of curly clouds cut from shimmery white cardstock . I stamped the "I dig you" sentiment from the Woofers and Tweeters set to finish the card. I may go back and add some tiny die cut hearts to the card above the dog . . .
