This card began with my background, which was created with the new Brick Pattern Stencil. (I can't tell you how excited I am that Whimsy Stamps is releasing more stencils!) I masked off the ground and ink-blended the wall with Tea Dye distress ink. After removing the stencil and mask, I inked up the ground with Peeled Paint. I stamped the sweet doggie from Fill My Heart with a reddish-brown ink and added the sentiment in black.
I trimmed some kraft paper to 4 1/4" x 7" and die-cut the top with a scalloped border die (You could also use a border punch). I scored the paper at 5 1/2", adhered my ink-blended panel, and folded down the top flap.
Onto a die-cut tag, I white heat-embossed one of the paw prints from Fill My Heart. I wrapped some jute string around the top of my panel, threading the tag through it, and adhered the whole thing to a white card.
