You can check it out HERE. But wait! Before you go, why not take a look at these Playful Pups? I am submitting it to the latest Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, which just happens to be, "It's a Dog's Life." My full instructions are below.

Directions:
1. Stamp the Playful Pups on to Mixed Media Paper with VersaFine Ink.

2. Color the image with the Zig Markers listed.

3. Fussy cut the image.

4. Create a mat around the stamped images with Black Velvet cardstocks, cutting the cardstock using the image as a guide and adhere together.

5. Create the card base out of Caribbean  Sea cardstock, cut to the size of 5 1/2" x 8."

6. Apply Distress Oxide Ink to craft mat and spritz with water.

7. Drag Instant Dry photo paper through wet ink. Heat set.

8. Dab photo paper in wet ink again and heat set. Repeat until you achieve the desired look.

9. The chalk finish of the Distress Oxide Ink can rub off of this paper, so you may choose to buff it off with a tissue for a more vibrant look.

10. Trim photo paper down to 5 1/4" x 3 3/4."

11. Glue the dogs to the photo paper.

12. Attach photo paper to card base.

What a WOW piece! I love color and am so impressed with the way you blended it so perfectly here! This is an explosion of color and energy, yet everything looks amazing balanced and is a feast for the eyes. I love the background and how it pairs with your central images so well. I love your bright take on our challenge theme and am so glad you shared your talents with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

Deco Art and Andy Skinner Blog Hop Finale

Hello! It's time for the finale of the DecoArt and Stampendous blog hop. Have you enjoyed yourself this week? I bet you've got some new techniques that you want to try. I know I do! I am super stoked about my project for today. And it solves a dilemma that we've had in my kids' room for a while. What you see above is 2 pieces of PVC. And some fab DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylics ! So, what am I doing with PVC, you ask? Well, my mom bought my son a light saber(Darth Vader's) for Christmas, and he wanted to display it, but we weren't really sure where in his room, and how.
