I don't have a lot of "people treat" stamps, but I did buy this stamp last year and made several cards with it. I pulled it out again as it is perfect for the challenge.
This time I used a Christmas background to stamp in green. Stamped the doggie with candy cane bone, watercoloured with distress inks, and fussy-cut. I popped a white stitched frame over the background and placed the image popped up on top. I didn't think it needed a sentiment.
I had a lot of fun making this card. :)

I hope you'll join us if you haven't already played along. Still one week left before the challenge closes on September 24th at midnight!
