Barkley Says "Happy Birthday!"


Stamp Simply Challenge: Alter a Store Bought Card. I actually used a portion of a thank you card that I had received from my good friend Kathie--this cute little flocked dachshund image! Thank you Kathie!

Altering or recycling store bought cards can be fun! I just grabbed some funky Luxe Sugar Cookie dp that I had in my stash...covering a long chocolate chip base completely. So very easy!
I stamped the birthday sentiment from PaperTrey Ink (Birthday Basics) with Versafine Sepia ink onto PaperTrey Ink's heavy white cardstock. A Spellbinder Tag Trio die was used to cut the tag.
I used a bright pink Copic marker to dye some May Art Cream twine, then fashioned it into a little leash bow.
I'm eager to see what the other Stamp Simply DT members have come up with! Why don't you take a look as well!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and have a wonderful weekend!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNIFER!!!
