Dachshund Through the Snow!


Hello Mo Manning Fans!
When your last name is WIENER, 
sometimes your Christmas 
cards need to go there..
Am I right ?!?!!

Well I thought that's what you would say!

I ADORE this card!

A little story about this card. ...(see below)








Dachshund Christmas Card:
Supplies:
Memory Box:  Winter Flurry Frame Stencil
Mo Manning designed - Penny Black Delightful Dachshund
Avery Elle - Ellements Ray Die
Copic: Cream YR21, FleshR02, Moss YG67, Lipstick Red R29
Ranger Distress Inks: Mermaid Lagoon, Wilted Violet, Distress Oxide Peacock Feathers

Making this Card: 
I inked some Bristol with Distress Ink Wilted Violet and Mermaid Lagoon on a stitched circle die cut.  Next I stencilled over with Distress Oxide Peacock Feathers.  I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black and Scan N Cut them out.  I die cut the Avery Elle "Ray" Die and adhered to a cherry red card stock that was cut down to leave an inch strip that I used to white emboss the sentiment. I adhered the blended circle to the Ray die attached to a red layer on a White card stock card base.
The images were colored in copics starting with the dog in Cream, then Flesh.  The color in Lipstic Red.  Trees were partially colored in Moss and all images and the sentiment were affixed with double sided foam tape.  I added little "snow" dots with a white Gel Pen.

Today I visited my nutritionist, 
(after I had a thyroidectomy a few months ago, I have been recently diagnosed with both Hypotrhyroidism and Type2 Diabetes).  So after a few weeks, this was my second visit, and something told me I had to bring her a card.
One of these cards.  Well I gave it to her and after our review of my progress,  I said she HAD to open it..
I said I had to see her expression.
I said it was a play on my name.
Her reaction was unexpected.  She said 
"Oh my, I am going to cry, can I cry" she asked..
I siad, "Oh it was supposed to be a chuckle, you know, my last name is Wiener."
I remained still..not knowing where this was really going.
She said, you don't know, she said her face changed into huge open smile as her face got rosy red "I HAVE Doxies!  This is what I collect.. all I love."  She went on quickly about her two doxies and with tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, she hugged me.
...... and it was literally like seeing the Grinches heart grow three sizes right in front of me.  She strolled out into the hallway with me, walking me out and bouncing on Christmas Spirint and flicked with her fingertip a dangling paper ornament that had the word PEACE written in blue on it that was above the check out monitor where I needed to reschedule my next appointment.  Bubbling with smiles she told the coordinator when I need to be in and the best times, I felt like she was treating me like royalty.  She gave me another hug before I left and she literally floated on air as I left.  
This was the first time I really saw Christmas Spirit come across someone like that.  It really was a beautiful thing to see.


Here is my Puppy Oliver!

RG Avenue: Plan Gel Press Valentine Cards

cover photo, Image may contain: text
Hello Crafty Peeps!
More RG Avenue Goodness!

Today I bring you the RG Plan Gel Press Inspiration of TWO cards!

Using the petite Gel Press on a large block, 
I dropped some Tangy Berry Sugar Drops directly on the Coffee Cup Gel Press, added a squirt of the Media Mixer and brayed it on the press until smooth.
I die cut the "So Smitten" Die and scattered a few hearts on the ink and then stamped onto smooth Bristol.  After cutting out my cups, I then inked up in Black Taffy ink the sentiments from the 
"Sweet Love" stamp set.

On the "Love Sweet Love" card I added a background of the"So Smitten" die backed with "Sour Watermelon" paper.




On my second card I inked up the 
"Hand Written" stamp set in Black Taffy as the
background.



Using the "So Smitten" die and "Sour Watermelon" paper I added a few scattered 
hearts.



I "popped" the cups up with double
 sided foam tape, as well as the pink hearts!
I hope you like them!
