Odd Dog Balloon, Thinking of you (LOTV)
Hello!
I made this card for a friend who's just lost his father. I really didn't know what to put on a card for him, the only things that came to mind were cute characters with hearts so odd dog with heart balloon seemed to fit!
I used:
Odd Dog Balloon Stamp - LOTV
Promarkers
LOTV Up up & away papers
Mint sequins - Lucys cards
Ribbon & sentiment stamp from stash
Letracet fineliner - faux stitching
Paper pieced the balloon and added some shading
I've had a really bad few days but after a lot of extra sleep am feeling a bit better again and so glad I managed to make this card yesterday!
Hope you're all well!

Always a difficult card to make at the bes of times, but even more so for a guy, but it is lovely and says it all, he will be so pleased that you are thinking of him.
