Stop & Smell the flowers . . .

I have had this image around colored and ready for a long time, just needed to turn him into a card -- well yesterday was the day and this happy little card came out of it. I thought the sentiment fit perfectly for the little doggy with a basket of flowers. The plastic flowers that are overlayed were SO old and in my stash from a couple years ago (Heidi Grace Designs), but they were the perfect color so I just had to use them.

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus).
