MFT Sketch Challenge

What's going on? I'm being way too productive, reading 5 novels, entering challenges, doing blog posts. It must be January.
Anyway, I really enjoy the MFT sketch challenges. I find it gives such a good starting point and focuses your ideas on what to use and how to use it.
I went back to my beloved dog cards for this one and used a 6x6 paper pad from Authentique.
I uses MFT's 4 legged friends which I haven't used before (shhh, don't tell Keri, I might have to use this for our exchange) and heat embossed the sentiment. I love the neutral tones and how this card came together.
Here's the sketch it was based on...

And this is the stamp and die set that I used...
I can see all kinds of possibilities with this set.

One Sheet Wonder



Since I make a lot of cards for donation, I figured it was time to try something a little less labour intensive ie. stamping and colouring and putting together a card. There are so many nice doggie themed lines that just came out. I picked up this one sheet wonder from Authentique and managed to put together 11 cards from one piece of paper! I loved how they all coordinated. Maybe I will put them into sets.

 I kept the designs simple because a designer I am NOT! Love the teal and orange cardstock too. So fall-like. And while putting them together I burned my delicious Bath and Body Works Cinnamon Caramel Swirl candle so now my house smells delightfully and not at all dog-like.
But manufacturers, we need some more cute dog accessories. I'm using up all my carefully hoarded buttons and brads.
Here's where the idea started for the sets....
PS. I got the cat line also.
