Pet Sympathy Rainbow Bridge

Hello, today I have a sad post to write. I am sad to create this card today, but grateful for my very special furry friend. My dog, Snickers, has crossed the rainbow bridge. He lived a very long life…he was 17 1/2 years old! But his body was done, and he left us on Tuesday evening.

I created this card before he died, but I didn’t do the voiceover for the video for 2 days afterwards. I think I held it together enough to get the video done, luckily it’s a short video!

The most difficult part of loving a pet is saying goodbye. I agree. It was so hard for me to lose my sweet Snickers. He would spend HOURS with me in the craft studio and since he’s been gone, I haven’t created anything new.

I do believe it will get easier. And there will be a time when I wake up not expecting him to be there. But today, I am still looking for him, and waiting to hear that jingle walking behind me…

I love adding foil to a stenciled card. I show you just how I did it in the video above. And while this is a simple card, it holds quite a lot of meaning.

All the Dogs Will Come Running

Hello! Today I have a sweet dog sympathy card to share. I’ve recently been thinking of my own little puppy who passed away just a couple years ago (I always get sentimental around Christmas time…he just loved the Christmas tree and the tree skirt made of “snow’!)

This sentiment set has me all teary-eyed and so I made a bright and happy card to counteract the sadness.

Can you just see it now? All the dogs we’ve ever loved!! Yes! I will love that day.

To make this card, I colored up a trio of Corgis with Copic Markers. I created a rainbow cloudy sky with a stencil and my favorite domed blending tools.

Then I stamped the sentiment, colored in the rainbow with Copics, and added my favorite Stardust Stickles to that cloud.

I added two layers of grass in varying green colors. Then I popped up the Corgis with foam tape! Aren’t they so cute?!

For some fun I die cut using Wonky Stitched Borders around the entire card. That’s what adds the stitching lines around the border.
