Last Week’s Card & Cuppa – Happy Tails

Last week’s Card & Cuppa project was all about the Happy Tails Stamp Set and matching punch.

Happy Tails Card & Cuppa Project. Designed by Karen at HIPPOFROG Designs.

This cute set combines Mint Macaron and Early Espresso for the layers and main stamping, with Soft Suede and Rich Razzleberry for the dog.

A trail of paw prints is stamped across the card and a sentiment cut with the Classic Label Punch and the ‘Ruff! Ruff!’ is added.

The kennel (or dog house!) is stamped off to create a slightly toned down effect. This is layered onto a Mint Macaron Circle.

For the dog, the attendees were given a choice of colours to stamp on. I chose So Saffron and used a stamp from the set to give some spots. Isn’t the patch across they eye cute?

We then added the collar before punching the shape out using the matching Dog Builder Punch.

Finally, the dog is attached using Dimensionals.

This Happy Tails Stamp Set has 16 stamps including a bone, spots to make a Dalmation-type dog, sympathy message and more. All for just £16, with the Punch and extra £17.

To even things up, I think next week’s class will be cat related 🙂

Happy crafting
