Today I'm sharing a mixed media card created with the fun set "Les Chiens (dogs)" by Katzelkraft rubber stamps. 


I stamped all the doggies on watercolor paper with Archival Black Ink and colored them with Faber Castell Art Grip Watercolor Pencils. I fussy-cut each of them to use later on another card.


I love creating little scenes on my cards, and this one was so easy! I colored 3 Gelatos on my craft mat to use as watercolors. Here I used Starburst, Stardust, and Mars Iridescent Gelatos to create a simple sunset look on my paper. I also die cut Lawn Fawn Grassy Border Die from watercolor paper and colored it with Comet Gelatos.
