Wag Wag

I love this cute Unity dog stamp and I often pair it with this sentiment from Hero Arts.  I decided to use them for ColourQ's 100th challenge.  They've paired up with the Clean and Simple Stamping challenge this week.  We were give a CAS sketch and could choose any past colour combo from ColourQ to use with it.  Talk about overwhelmed by choice!!  I spent ages perusing the past colour palettes but finally settled on CQC #88 which I thought would go nicely with the pooch.  My awesome Stampin' Up demonstrator, Selene, recently sent me the new catalog/idea book and included with it some gorgeous cards and a selection of ribbons and buttons.  So sweet of her!  There was some Cherry Cobbler ribbon in there (which Lynn has raved about more then once!) which was perfect for my card and I see more of it in my future - once the shopping ban ends.  :(

Self imposed shopping ban? Your card is adorable! I think you should sell some cards where you work, this cutie would fly off the shelves!

HAHA, I'm with the others. Shopping ban? What on earth... LOL I love this though. You should definitely make a batch of cards to sell at the office, not just to the employees but to customers! ;)
