Happy Bloggers Challenge Friday! Thanks to those who played along with last weeks Make it Shimmer Challenge, it was wonderful to see so many new players! This weeks challenge theme is Pets, it's open for your interpretation of the theme, so if you have a Pet Alligator or always wanted one, stamp away my friend - we'd love to see it!

I went for a monochromatic look, using papers from Graphic 45's Curtain Call line, along with this adorable dog image from Rare Image Rubber Stamps Pet plate. To add color to my image I used the Vintage Art Technique from the June Technique Junkie Newsletter. While the Tech calls for a large collage detailed image, I thought it worked wonderfully with this image.
Stamps - Rare Image Rubber Stamps
Ink - Ranger Black Archival, Distress Inks - Scattered Straw, Wild Honey, Walnut Stain
Card Stock - Vanilla, Black, Caramel
Other - CandiFix, Graphic 45 Curtain Call, Ink Blending Tool, Non Stick Craft Mat
