Hello, Jingle here! Today, I am sharing a super fun, dimensional Doggone Happy Birthday card that is sure to bring a smile to your recipient’s face!

Doggone Happy Birthday Elements
Let’s get started creating this design! Stamp and die-cut the dog and tennis ball images. Next, color and shade the images with Olo markers.

Create the Background Panel
Create a stenciled background. Use a cloud stencil and some blending brushes, and add ink in layers to create a soft cloud look.
Next, die-cut two strips of green cardstock with a grass die. The first strip is adhered to the inked panel using the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser as a back layer. To create dimension, I used the Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft. for the front strip. This will provide a stage for your two die-cut pups to frolic and play!


Add the Sentiment
Now that the background is complete, you will stamp your sentiment onto the clouds. I used a stamp tool positioner to place and ink my greeting.

Finishing Touches
Add the little dog die-cuts on the card panel using the 3D Foam Squares White Mix. I use both sizes to ensure a good hold across the figure. The small circles from the 3D Foam Circles White Mix are perfect for the little tennis ball!
Finally, you will cut a black panel just a bit larger than your panel, mat the panel, and then adhere the whole piece to your card base with E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser, for a very fun birthday card!


I hope you have enjoyed this playful pup greeting!
Thanks for stopping by!
