Oh, Rainbow Dog, I smile every time I look at you! (insert gleeful grin here)

This is an extremely simple design, without much in the way of technique—you could say, it’s a more literal interpretation of “stretching your stamps”, heh, heh, heh!

I don’t think much of an explanation is needed, but hey, if you have questions, just ask. And, if you want to duplicate this card, the orange, yellow and green strips measure 5/8 x 4 1/4”. Finished card is your standard A-2 (measuring 4 1/4 x 5 1/2”). Specific paper, ink and marker colors are listed below in the supplies.

I found it easiest to space things out by gluing the pink and blue dogs into position first, then the orange and green, with yellow being positioned last. Popped the whole thing into the MISTI so I could stamp the sentiment nice and straight in the desired spot.

If you would take a moment to leave a comment on today’s post, I’ll draw a name randomly this Friday evening, Mar 27th; I’ll email the winner and send this card out via snail mail.

Stay home, stay healthy, stay crafty. (wink)
