It's a Bird; It's a Plane; It's a DOG?!


 I found this older Art Impressions stamped image in my stash and decided to finally color it and make a card with it. I die-cut all the panels with Li'l Inker stitched rectangles, and the darker blue panel was stamped and heat embossed with with white ep and a Brutus Monroe cloud background stamp. Someone gifted that stamp to me a long time ago and this is the first time I've used it. The fussy cut clouds are also from A.I. and while covering them with Wink of Stella glitter, they turned reddish brown for some reason, so I covered them with a white paint pen to hide the boo-boo. I colored the image with Copics and some glaze pens, and the sentiment is also from A.I.

I'm entering this into the Double D challenge - things that fly
(I'm aware we don't normally see dogs fly, but in this case we do!) 
😁😊😉

Also entering this into the NBUS #49 since it's the first outing for that cloud stamped background  - even though I covered most of it up 😏😕

Wishing everyone a very happy Monday and thanks for taking the time to stop by! Make it a great day and always remember to keep smiling!

What a fun card Carol, looks like your little dog is enjoying his ride. Your card would be perfect for the optional theme of 'For the Love of Animals' over in the Allsorts Challenge this week. xx

Hi dear Carol, I'm a bit late on commenting, I have had busy days...
AI images always make me smile and giggle, and this one isn't an exception for sure! :D That doggie looks very joyful to fly, such happy and cute face! I would fly too :D LOL Love the bold and cheerful colours you used for the parachute and the puffy clouds give a pretty 3D look, sometimes the boo-boos help to make something better. ;) The sentiment matches so well the image, such fabulous card to lift the spirit of someone!!
Have a wonderful week, my friend, wishing you all the best for the days ahead!
Big hugs and love!

What a fun cheery card this is, Carol! That dog and his tongue are having a ball! I love how you have added so much detail with your mats (even embossing a NBUS cloud pattern on one), and your coloring, and a 'high on life' sediment! I'm ready to start my day right now! Thank you for inspiring everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Darnell

Oh, what a fun card! Seeing that dog carried up in the air makes me smile, too cute! Love the colorful parachute and pretty clouds!

Super fun dog image. I might need to add this one to my wish list as I am always looking for a few new dog images for my donations.

Cute and I like the sentiment you used!

Ha, ha, this card makes me smile and laugh at the same time! I love this card, it is cute and clever and perfectly executed! That is so weird about the wink of stella turning a reddish brown on the clouds, so weird! But you saved them and we would have been no the wiser if you had not told. A fun, clever and very funny card Carol and I just love it! Hugs, Brenda
