A Bay Window Card made for a card swap. The recipient loves dogs so this was the theme of my card.
The image is a die from a Spellbinders "Pawing Around (Dog)" set. I layered it on a plain cream heart so the embossing wouldn't show through. I used a Creative Expressions 'Pawprint Lattice' embossing folder for the background. A strip of dog ribbon was added to the front. The panel on the right was raised up on foam tape, so that the card can stand up with the bay window. A sentiment and five black pearls finished off my card.
I used a Poppystamps 'Dog Paw Border' die for the side panels, cut in cream cardstock with the red mat showing through.
