Dancing Dog Playing in the Rain

Greetings!

The new January - April 2023 mini catalog is full of fabulous new products to feast your eyes on!  I fell in love with the Rain or Shine Suite Collection at first glance!  The characters are adorable, the papers are beautiful and the dies not only cut out some of the items in the papers, but also add some fantastic additions to enhance the scenes you can create with the characters.  You can really create some fun stories through the images and dies in this collection.



Today's card shows off a little of this and a little of that from this collection.  The dancing dog is an easy one to add to a card by simply cutting it out.  I chose to use the Stitched Rectangle die. These Rain or Shine Designer Series Papers (DSP) have a UV coating added to various outlines and items on one side of each sheet, so there are some lovely shiny features.  The raindrops on the background panel on this card are all UV coated as is the little dog's shirt and umbrella.  I've included a photo in the instruction portion that shows this.  Adding a little celebratory message from the Graceful Tiles stamp set along with a few Loose Daisy Embellishments compliments the happy of the dancing dog.

Here's How It's Made:
Adhere raindrops background panel to Mango Melody card front at an angle.

Position Stitched Rectangle die around dancing dog image to your liking.  If necessary, cut around rectangle to have piece be sized to fit into your full sized or mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, and die cut.  

Ink cloud stamp with Basic Gray and stamp onto Basic White cardstock.  Color in clouds using Light & Dark Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends.  Die cut out clouds.  Ink "the perfect day to" with Flirty Flamingo and stamp onto Basic White cardstock. Cut out with paper snips.  Clean and dry stamp, then ink "Celebrate" with Flirty Flamingo, and stamp so there's enough space around the word to die cut it with the smallest banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies.  

Adhere die cut dancing dog rectangle onto card front.  Adhere a couple of the clouds so edges are extending beyond rectangle panel.  Adhere greeting onto dancing dog panel.  Here's a close-up of positioning.  Notice the shiny features of the UV coating.


Embellish with a few Loose Daisy Embellishments.
