Hello, crafty friends! Today, I'm excited to share a sneak peek at the Pet-Tastic Release from Honey Bee Stamps with this adorable dog-themed card. If you love crafting for pet lovers, this release is a must-have! Please note links will go live after the release party tonight Feb 28, 8 pm EST.



CARD RECIPE
Tail Waggers Rubber Stamps 
Foam Ball

This card features the Tail Waggers Rubber Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies. I colored the bulldog using Copic markers, giving it a realistic look. To add a little extra shine and dimension, I applied glossy accents to the eyes and nose.

The cozy dog bed and cute bone come from the Lovely Layers: Dog Beds Honey Cuts. The layers add beautiful depth to the design. I also used patterned paper from the "Free Bee" A2 card stock set (free with a qualifying purchase of $100) to create the background.

The sentiment, "Anyone can be cool, awesome takes practice!" is from the You've Got a Friend Stamp Set and is stamped in Bee Creative Intense Black Ink. I framed the design using an A2 Scallop Rectangle Frame, which adds a lovely touch.

For a pop of sparkle, I used gems from the Simply Spring Sticker Set. The party hat was a fun DIY addition—I cut a small triangle from the same colored paper as the bed and added white gel pen dots for decoration. A foam ball tops it off for an extra festive touch!

A small white bone is placed on the edge of the bed. The party hat is made from patterned paper with a foam ball on top. The card’s sentiment is in mixed script and print fonts.

I hope you love this fun, pet-themed card as much as I do! Stay tuned for more inspiration from the Pet-Tastic Release. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy crafting!
