SU LateNightStampers Challenge/Gone to the Dogs


Is this not the cutest little dog and I love the flowers in the little cart.  This is another stamp in the set I used yesterday which is called Summer Afternoon and it is a hostess set from Stampin' Up!  I can see myself using this one quite often.  Our challenge this week at LateNightStampers is to use an Animal on your card and since I had just got this set, I had to use it again.  And of course the inspiration for this card came from the sketch over at Stamping 411.  At the last minute, I decided to turn the sketch because I thought it looked better this way, but I had originally cut the card stock to be portrait.  But I like it and it turned out just fine.

Here is a side view of the card!


And the inside where I can just write a note!

Summer Afternoon

This stamp set I used for the following card reminds me of a quote by Thomas Jefferson, "Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today."  Also, Proverbs tells us, "Do not say to your neighbor,
“Go, and come back, And tomorrow I will give it,” When you have it with you." Proverbs 3:28  So as I was making this card, that is what I was thinking about and realizing that I have been putting off a lot lately and need to get back on track.

Anyway, here is my card!  Just a small lesson to myself!


This card was inspired by a sketch challenge blog I just found and loved the sketch called Freshly Made Sketches.  Please check them out.  And this is the first time I have used this stamp set from Stampin' Up! which is a hostess set.  It has three different stamps and I love each one of them.

Here is a side view!


And yes, I did the inside and used a verse from Our Daily Bread Designs stamp set, Scripture Collection #1.


Stamp Sets used today are:
SU - Summer Afternoon, Cottage Garden
ODBD - Scripture Collection #1

Thanks for looking and have a wonderful evening!
