February Club Stamp from Little Claire - Scottie Dogs

This is the second of my DT cards made with this month's Little Claire club stamp set, the adorable 'Scottie Dogs'.  You can find the set here on the Little Claire website.

To make the background to the card, I've used four sheets of paper from the 'Mini Tartan Paper Pack' which you can find here on the Little Claire website.  The papers are two different colours of the tartan.  I also used one of the tartan papers to paper piece the umbrella.  The sentiment I've used is from the 'Scottie Dogs' stamp set.

February Club Stamp from Little Claire - Scottie Dogs

This is another sample card I've made using this month's club stamp set from Little Claire.  The set is called 'Scottie Dogs' and you can find it here on the Little Claire website.

This is what the set looks like:

As you can see, one of the stamps included in the set is a row of three little Scottie dogs.  I stamped this twice to give me a line of six dogs and made them in to an easel card.  For the stopper I've repeat stamped one of the sentiments included in the set.
