Fur You Card

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I'm sharing a card for my guest designer post.  This is the type of card which can be kept on hand for any occasion.  It's perfect for sending a note to the pet lover in your life.
Once I cut out the Cat & Dog Border, I used some white ink along the edges for a shadow affect. The Picket Fence Mini die set was used for the multiple fence and grass pieces.  I also cut out a basic circle with my Cricut Explore and sliced off a portion of it.
The bottom portion of the card was taped off to keep it a solid white. The night sky was created with a mixture of Oxide Ink colors and spritzed with some water.  I also inked the edges of the half circle to replicate a moon.
The next step was to splatter the background with some white paint for a starry night appearance.  I layered the moon, fence and grass on my card.  A sentiment from the Scrappy Moms (retired) "Little Critters" stamp set was stamped on a strip of polka dotted paper which was attached along the edge of the grass.  The patterned paper adds some interest to this simple card.
I popped up the Cat & Dog border on some foam pop dots for a bit of dimension and anchored it along the fence.
Here are the die sets I used on my card, available in the shop:
