Home is Where your Dog is

Here's my take on this week's OWH Stars and Stamps sketch challenge #187.
I'm using an adorable pre-colored digi image, sentiment, & coordinating designer papers by Deedee Anderson from the set "darling doggies." (You can also find her images through the badge on my sidebar.) I'm very honored to be joining Deedee's DT and using her sweet images :) I added some Copic color to this adorable image, because this sleepy pooch seemed to need some ground to lie on. The little dream bubble was blank, so I stamped a $1 store dog bone image in the center, and then colored the background in to match the dsp. The mats were matching scraps from my bin, and the twine was too.

I hope you're having a wonderful weekend where you live. Here in eastern PA, it's simply gorgeous!

Just a precious image that you turned into a fabulous card. Love the bone in his thought cloud and your "ground" came out perfect with the shading and all. Congrats on your new DT position. Happy as anything to see the DeeDee Designs back.

I think the bone is the crowning glory on an awesome card! I am loving seeing pre-colored images-- they look so good I may have to try some! Your addition of the copic shows you can make the pre-colored images your own! Love it!!!
