Dog with handmade flowers

Hello there, it is 4.26 pm, Sunday as I post this card. I am not a big fan of Sunday because it is a reminder of Monday which comes all too soon. This dog stamp is from Indadinkado. (Gosh! I could barely read the name on the stamp - asked my daughter to read it for me because it was soo... tiny)

The flowers are NOT roses for a change but are home made scrunchie flowers which have been shaped with a quilling tool. The flowers are made of handmade matt gold and wine coloured paper.

Here is another dog image on handmade textured paper stuck on handmade cardstock as well. The dried leaves are from Bali and the flowers are obviously handmade by yours truly. The sentiment 'Best wishes' is from Do crafts - Whisper words.

Some change seems to be coming over me... am making cards instead of flowers - thank the good Lord! LOL!
