True Love or Fabulous Friendships

 Hello everyone. So January has been and gone and lovely February is upon us and my promise to craft more has well and truly gone by the wayside. I don't generally ride very much in the winter when it is wet, cold and dark but it's been so lovely and dry that I haven't really stopped. Saying that we are sure to get some nasty weather sooner or later. 

Anyway, I did find the time to make the card I am sharing today. It's my DT piece for

As You Like It Challenge

where we are full of love with our theme of True Love or Fabulous Friendships.

I love receiving a nice envelope through the door so spread the love by sending thinking of you cards to friends that I've not seen for a while. This is one such card that I recently made. She has a labrador so the die cut shape is perfect I think,


I started with a snippet of black Foundations card that I trimmed to fit the 4 x6 card base and then cut the aperture. The die is from Crafters Companion and all I did was backed it with some Doodlebug Designs paper and added a green ribbon. My trusty Mama Elephant sentiment and tag die set came up trumps again to finish it off.

It would be lovely to see your makes over at the challenge blog.

Thank you for dropping in and I hope you stay well. See you soon xx

    Super make for a dog loving friend Sarah.
    I was only remarking to the OH this morning how dry and mild it has been. Good job too with that pesky ram lamb putting it about last summer! We have 11 ewes and lambs here behind the house, so have been hoping they will have become hardened off before the worst of the weather hits. Still it has been known to snow at Easter!

    That's a beautiful card Sarah, I love to see silhouettes My neighbour always jokes that she never sees me through the winter as I'm not a fan of being out in the cold. The weather seems to be getting a little milder though, so Spring is definitely on it's way x

    Love, love, love this, Sarah. It really popped in my Bloglovin reader! I'm glad to see it is just a sweet hello/Valentine because it would also be a lovely poignant sympathy card design for the loss of a pet. Enjoy your rides while you can! Hugs, Darnell
