I have done all three cards with a Honeycomb stencil background in bright shades of yellow. To me, it just says summer. :) All the main images are watercoloured using blue, red, and gray. Using the primary colours plus gray, makes these images even more fun. :)
The stamp set I've used is called Paws and Relax (Penny Black 30-832). It looks as though Scooter has a very special day at the spa! The card above shows Scooter enjoying a very pampering bath. I think we could all use this type of relaxing and pampering after the past 1 1/2 years.
The next card has Scooter stretched out and relaxing after a tough (NOT!) day of pampering. I would like to swap places with Scooter! :)
The last card show Scooter relaxing some more ... boy he has a great life! He's catching up with his favourite book while sipping a cup of chicken broth.Sharing the first card at Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Anything Goes.

These are such fun, I am wishing for a spa day myself now. Scooter certainly seems to be enjoying his xx
ReplyDeleteI read the story and I'm sure you know it tugged at my heartstrings. Your cards are darling and I believe they illustrate the kind of life Scooter felt he was living. So sweet, sniff sniff.
ReplyDeleteWhat cute images Loll and three beautiful cards...love that dog! x
ReplyDeleteScooter sure has a good life, Lolly! Love how you've colored him and the pretty yellow stenciling!
ReplyDeleteOMG Scooter's adorable, I just love his relaxed approach to a dogs life:) Awesome cards XX
ReplyDeleteYour cards made me smile, Loll! SO fun! The second card with Scooter in the lounge chair reminded me of my daughter’s dog who has her very own lawn chair. That one is spoiled. Love the fun primary colors you chose and always a colorful background for your characters.
ReplyDeleteAdorable cards using those sweet little dogs! Love the one with him reading his book in his dressing gown! Love the backgrounds you created too.
ReplyDeleteScooter is the most laid back dog and beautifully colored, Lolly. TFS all 3 of your cards...the bright yellow stenciled background was perfect for a Summer time card:-) Love and Hugs...Nancy
ReplyDeleteYour cards are so much fun ...... love the stenciled background. Scooter looks like he knows how to relax ...... I could do with a spa day right now! xx
ReplyDeleteThree fun cards Loll, though I couldn't imagine Max relaxing like that for more than 2 minutes. He's far too involved in what is happening outside! :)
ReplyDeleteThree wonderful cards Loll - love the bright yellow stenciled feature on them all, and the fun images and sentiments you have paired up
ReplyDeleteStay safe
Blessings

Scooter has quite the life and you've portrayed it very well, Loll.
ReplyDeleteOK, I admit I'm a little jealous of Scooter...what a life!! I love how you did the honeycomb on all three cards and the same color palette on all your Scooter images too...what a delightful trio of cards Loll!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteYou used the honeycomb stencil wonderfully in all 3 different ways, Loll! The bright shades of yellow make the card look so summery and fun! The primary colors and gray worked so great!
ReplyDeleteScooter is sooo adorable with your coloring. He's totally relaxed and pampered and he looks so content. I'm jealous!! ;-)

ReplyDeleteOh these made me smile... I was finally able to go back to my exercise class yesterday after a VERY long time and now I need relaxation... I ache all over! Wonderful cards and how lovely that there is something to raise awareness for all those poor dogs.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, these cards are adorable and so fun! I love the bright yellow-it screams summer to me too. Scooter is way to cute and I want to trade places with him too and get pampered. lol He is definitely having a great time! Hugs, Brenda
