Sending Smooches

Here's my card for the current My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge.  I had colored up a trio of dogs from the Good Friends stamp set the other day as part of The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge, so I used one of them as the focal point in a small scene I made to represent the layout's rectangular panel. The background was made from a piece of blue cardstock with a strip of green cardstock, cut with a grass border punch, placed at the bottom. The dog image was added on top using foam tape for dimension.  I adhered the scene to a piece of blue on blue dotted patterned paper. The set's "sending smooches" sentiment was stamped on a kraft Slanted Sentiment Strips die cut and placed just underneath the scene.  I added a trio of die cut red hearts at the top of the scene to go with the sentiment. The finished panel was adhered to a coordinating blue card base.
