Christmas Friends

Happy Friday!  It's Jeanne posting today and I have a Christmas card for pet lovers.  It features a die from the new pets release and two from this year's Christmas release.
I cut most of pieces from colored cardstock and used white for the hat trim, holly and kitty's inner ears, paws and nose.
 I used Copic markers to color the inner ears, noses and holly. I sponged the edges of the fence boards with brown ink to age it.  Then I glued all the pieces together.
Next I cut a panel from snowflake paper and 4/14 2 inch panel of white.  I then free form cut a snowbank.
I used self adhesive backing on red cardstock, cut the sentiment and using scissors cut off the "tree" portion.
I adhered the the sentiment to the top right hand corner.
Then I placed all my images on the panel to see how they fit.
Since the dog looked like he was sitting a little high, I decided to cut down the snowbank.  I trimmed it so that it was 1 3/8 inches high.
This allowed more room for the dog and cat.  I glued all pieces to the card and popped up the dog face with foam dots.
