CIRCLES!



My card features the new Cuddles the Puppy stamp set. I stamped the girl image in Totally Taupe ink on watercolour paper, cut it with a circle die and used my Daniel Smith watercolour paints to create the little scene. I used some of our Krafty Rainbow Dots (also circles!) and a die cut flourish to finish it off.

I made another bookmark for today's hop...I'm on a bookmark kick lately. I love how quickly they work up, and they make a lovely gift...a little something different than a card. :)  I used one of the main images from A Dog's Life. I stamped it in Totally Taupe ink, watercoloured the entire scene and created an easy background with the new Pawprints Stencil and two of our inks (Raspberry Rose and Purple Petunia). Oh, and Purple Petunia is our Ink of the Month, which means it's on sale (including large pads, mini cubes and the refill)!
