Papertrey Ink August Blog Hop Challenge

Tuesday, August 24, 2010


Tonight is the night for Papertrey's monthly blog hop!! The challenge? Use a brown paper bag in a creative way.
I made this project for a friend who just adopted a new family pet!

I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with for the Blog Hop!


Although my project says "Pet Shop" I strongly encourage people to adopt a pet. There are so many loving animals that need a good home. We adopted our German Shepherd, Lady, when she was 3 years old. She has been a loving companion for the last 6 years. We can't imagine our lives without her! :)



Cardstock: PTI Black, White
Paper: PTI Bitty Box Basics and Polka Dot Parade, Debbie Mumm Stripe
Ink: Memento Black
Stamps: PTI Take Note, Tiny Treats Valentines, Friendship Jars, Enjoy The Ride, Fresh Alphabet, Heart Prints
Other: Fiskars Upper Crest and Scallop Border Punches, Martha Stewart Score Board and Black Liner Pen, Copics, Satin Ribbon

    Oh. My. Goodness. How clever are you? Love the play on "how much is that doggie in the window"... at least that's what the bag made me think of. The card is totally outside the box thinking with the Valentine set. Amazing. Your friends will be thrilled.
