BBTB2 PAISLEY DACHSHUND CHALLENGE
































































Hiya
It's been ages again since I blogged!! But I'm here today with a card for the BBTB2 challenge this week.
Our lovely DT member Melissa chose the adorable dachshund cut from the Paisley cartridge for us to play with!
Well I thought this little dog deserved some birthday pampering so my card shows her mistress taking her to the 'Pooch Parlour!'
This card was so quick to put together which is a good thing as my mojo has taken something of a nose dive lately! I sure hope I find it soon!
 I had purchased the digi background ages ago and it comes in a set called Girls About Town which you can buy HERE. This Digi collection comes in colour and black and white if you wish to colour yourself. I went with the already coloured image and sized and printed it straight on to a 6x6" card blank. I did add the Birthday Treat computerized sentiment to the image before printing. I cut my little dachshund using the card cut at 2 1/2" because I didn't want any line cuts that would have been on the base cut. I was going for a silhouette look! The girl is the pregnat lady from New Arrival cart and I cut her on blackout at 4" and just manually cut off her bump! They are then both pop dotted onto the card. Lots of crystal bling added and for the dog's lead I just threaded a jump ring over the girl's wrist and the lead is a silver peel off border.
Be sure to pop over to BBTB2 and take a look at the gorgeous projects the rest of the team have created this week, they're fabulous!
Thank you so much for popping in today.
Hope you all have a great week!

Oh Julie - I absolutely LOVE this card. I shouldn't say so, but it was my fav of the week from the moment I first spied it on the BBTB2 site (prior to publishing live). I love the coloring and the lines and DETAILS!!! The pooch parlor is adorable. I think you found your MOJO!!

I too have been struggling for the last two - three months. Not sure why, but I am trying to over come the lapse. Let's hang in there together!!
