You're Paw-some Card by Samantha Mann

BUTT really... 

Today's paw-some corgi card by Samantha is sure to make you giggle! 

This hilarious card features the cute corgis with their butts facing us from our Corgi Beach Stamp Set. She stamped and colored three of them, giving them cute pink cheeks and adding accents with a white gel pen. She cut the corgis out using the coordinating Corgi Beach Die Set. 

These fun corgis go perfectly with the custom sentiment she created. She inked up a gorgeous green background using distress inks. Then she used our Essential Alphabet Die Set to cut letters out of the background to spell "BUTT REALLY" and added black cardstock behind the cut outs to make them pop. Then she added the sentiment "you're paw-some" from our Heartfelt Woofs Stamp Set underneath the big words to complete the funny message. She embossed the sentiment in white onto a black banner that was die cut using our Banner Trio Die Set. This fun banner has fold lines that allow you to pop the banner up for some extra fun and dimension too. 

To finish out her adorable card, she stamped a few dog themed elements from our Welcome New Dog Stamp Set to add to the fun puppy theme. She used the leash, dog dish, bone and tennis ball and colored them all using fun bright colors. Then she used the Welcome New Dog Die Set to cut them out and added everything to her card front. 

We know that the recipient of this card will definitely crack a smile when they receive it!
