Paper Cuts

It’s been a very long week here with a sick child and then a snow day… TGIF BABY, and school is ON TIME!  (I seriously need a break.) 

This is a card using “Ooh La La” by Lizzie Anne Designs.   The dog in the back is “admiring” the crown on the dog in the front. 

I made the crown from part of a finial stamp in the set, just using the bottom portion.  I stamped and masked the “crown” (omitting the bigger portion of the stamp) then stamped the dog.

The brads are Stampin’ Up’s pewter build-a-brads.  I love these!  It would be nice to have aged copper ones though!  I used a 1/2″ circle punch to punch the brown patterned paper, glued the pieces inside the brad (I just used regular snail-type adhesive), then added the clear top.  They’re great!

Thanks for stopping by!  Stay warm (it’s freezing here!! Brrrr…) and have a great weekend!
