Peachy Keen LFIF Challenge #8

Good morning all! It's been a pretty busy week here and I have another cute punch art idea for you!  The Let's Face it Friday ladies needed to come up with an idea centered around X's & O's.  So, of course I got to use my Love Impressions designer paper from Stampin' Up!.  Peachy Keen came out with the new Valentine/St Pattys stamp release yesterday and Kathy outdid herself again!  My NEW favorite face set was in the batch.  It's called Wide Eyed and Bushy Tailed (check it out HERE).  I used the 1 1/8" size set for the puppy face.  Be sure to visit the challenge site HERE and check out the other great projects.  Play along in the challenge for a chance to win a new Cricut Cartridge!

The puppy was created using the Ornament punch for the head, Large Oval for the ears, Medium Oval for the paws and Wide Oval for the body.  I used close to cocoa textured cardstock.  Clip top off ornament and round out bottom. Sponge edges of all cocoa pieces with chocolate chip ink.  Stamp PKS face with black staz on.  Add white highlight to nose with unibal gel pen.  Apply rose ink to cheeks with stipple brush.  Color tongue with cherry cobbler marker, inside of mouth with zig pen and add some depth around the mouth and eyes with a blender pen and cocoa ink.  Attach ears with dimensionals.  Attach head to body with dimensional.  Attach paws to sign with dimensionals.  The greeting is from the Stampin' Up! Seasonal Sentiments stamp set.

I wish you could see this card in person!  I also used the Stampin' Up! red glitter paper and it's so gorgeous!  I've used a lot of glitter papers in my crafting lifetime but I have NEVER worked with paper this awesome!
