Black and White Puppy

Here is another card I made yesterday. My husband "forced" me to go to my stamproom. HA HA HA...really though he did say "Why are you up here? Go downstairs and stamp!" So I didn't argue, and went and stamped. At least I was doing laundry while I was down there, but did enjoy the time for me. I made this card for 2 challenges. First I used this sketch from this week's Whimsie Doodles challenge. I also used a dog on the card, so it also qualifies for this week's Cupcake Craft Challenge, which is Cats & Dogs.
So I was attempting an all black and white card. I started with the dalmatian image onto white. For the base I used white, and added a piece of Core-dinations CS. I wadded it up into a ball, and then flattened and sanded it. For the black strip, I used white ink and the little paw prints from the Sweet 'n Sassy set "I woof you". I used the bone stamp from that set for the paper behind the dalmatian. For the piece under the dog, I used the core-dination CS again, and tore it and sanded it. Last I added some white eyelets. It didn't turn out as I have envisioned it...lol, but I still think it was cute. Thanks for looking!
