I’m excited to share with you this Hot Dog Floating Gatefold Card today! Our granddaughter was just given two long-haired mini dachshunds for her birthday and I knew this would be the perfect card for her. We also share our home with a couple of very spoiled mini dachshunds so when the Hot Dog stamp set became available in the Stampin’ Up! January to June mini catalog, I jumped on buying it.

I used the following materials to make this Hot Dog Floating Gatefold Card

  • Stamp set – Hot Dog
  • Inks – Memento, Real Red, Lt Cinnamon Cider Blend, Lt Basic Black Blend
  • Basic White Cardstock – 8 1/5″ x 5 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8 ” on both ends for card base, scraps of Basic White, and two strips 3″ x 1/4″ scored at 1/4″, 1 7/8″ and 2 3/8″
  • Real Red Cardstock – scrap
  • Playful Pets Designer Series Paper – 5″ x 3 3/4″, 2 pieces 5 1/4″ x 17/8″
  • Accessories – Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Retired Large Letters Framelits Dies, Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Seal

To Make Card

  • fold card base on score lines. Then adhere dsp to card base.
  • cut H and B from Real Red cardstock and adhere to front of card
  • stamp greeting with Real Red ink on white scrap. Cut out with a Stitched So Sweetly rectangle die. Adhere to inside center of card.
  • stamp the dogs on Basic White cardstock scraps and color with Stampin’ Blends. Fussy-cut them out.
  • Bend score lines on narrow strips of cardstock into a C shape. Adhere the 5/8″ end inside near bottom of right card front near the fold. Glue the dog to the strip being sure it doesn’t show below the closed card. Apply glue just to 1/4″ section and fold the strip back under the dog. Close card and press on the 1/4″ tab. Open card to be sure only the 1/4″ tab is glued down.
  • Repeat this process in the upper left side of the card gluing the 5/8″ section to the inside of the left card front.

Here is a darling shaker card for Zeke. Zeke is our youngest great-grandchild and he turns 4 on Monday. It is so very gratifying when you can create such a cute shaker card in less than 30 minutes. I showed you on this post Wednesday how to make this type of easy shaker card and included a video in the post. Check it out.

Today’s card features the Pampered Pets bundle and the Playful Pets designer series paper. I think they are perfect for a four-year-boy who has three dogs in his family. I used the following supplies to make this card.

Happy National Dog Day

Greeting card with dog and saying "What's For Dinner" created with the Pampered Pets Bundle and the Playful Alphabet Dies

Here are two Happy National Dog Day cards. I created them with the Pampered Pets Bundle (154069) and the Playful Alphabet dies (152706). The first card base is one of the retired Summer Nights Add-on card bases that were available to expand the July Paper Pumpkin Kit. Where did I get the apostrophe you ask? One of the alphabet dies has a cedilla, Ç. I just cut off the squiggle from that character.

For the second Happy National Dog Day card, I used the same Pampered Pets bundle and Playful Alphabet dies. This time I used one of the designs from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper for the background. We have two dachshunds so I of course had to be sure that the dachsies were not covered up! LOL!

The Pampered Pets bundle also includes a couple of very cute cat images. On this card, the dog is wishing the cat a day that is a real treat. The smug look on the cat makes me smile every time I look at it.

Miss you card created with the Pampered Pets bundle, Playful Pets Designer Series Paper and Playful Alphabet Dies.

I was having so much fun with the Playful Alphabet dies and the Pampered Pets bundle that I had to make a fourth card using the last cat image. This cat looks like he is sad to me. It is the perfect image for a Miss You sentiment.

I’ll bet you are imagining all kinds of other cards you could make with the Playful Pets Suite of products.
