ConWAGulations!

I hope you all are having a lovely weekend so far!  My sister got a new puppy this week so how lucky am I that Laurie Wilson from Doodle Pantry gifted us with a bonus release, "Quirky Dog" - isn't that pretty cool!?  I couldn't help but make a this cute little gift card (plus a few doggie treats ;) holder for Shell's new German Shepard puppy, Maya.  I used the 2-5-7-10 box tutorial from Splitcoast Stampers for the box.  I printed Quirky Dog three times so I could layer the image and give him a 3D look.  I am most excited about how fluffy he looks!  He's layered up with lots of flock and I did this by running the image through my Xyron (image side down) and then covering it with white flock, pressing it down, etc., and doing it all over again.  I did the same thing for his stars, stripes and spots but I added one additional layer to
 
these areas using Scotch quick dry adhesive and more flock.   I made up the sentiment and printed it up using Microsoft Home Publishing  It is cut out using labels SB shapeabilities, Ribbon Tag Trio Two.

For the back of the box, I cut out a paw print from DCWV Pet Stack cardstock using SB nestie big scalloped circles (large).  I edged the flap with an MS border punch and added a ruffle layer (vellum).  The box is tied close with twine from The Twinery.

I am finishing up some favors for a bridal shower I am hosting this week so I'm off to get them done :)
Happy Crafting! <3Lisa
