Girl Soccer Player card

I'm always amazed when I visit the Whipper Snapper Designs website to see all the different stamps that they have.  I went looking for a girl basketball stamp and ended up with a variety of sports stamps and this is one of those.  I colored in part of the area next to the girl with a somewhat matching Copic color for the sky so I didn't have to try to fussy cut it out.

Dog Adoption card

I made this card for a coworker that adopted a rescue dog down in Texas.  The wonderful place she gets it from rescues dogs from puppy mills and then spays and works with them so they can be adopted into caring families.  I mixed and matched stamp sets to make one that sort of resembles their sweet adoptee.
