Anything Goes Challenge at A Place to Start w/Optional Twist : My Fauna Valentine (include a critter.)

Hello Crafters.  This is my card I made for this month's Anything Goes Challenge at A Place to Start.  The optional twist this month is to incude a critter on your Valentine card.



 
I chose to make a card with this cute dog image for my youngest grandson for Valentines day. The image call is from a company called Patties Creations, Pattie's digital stamps can be found on Esty. The image is called Puppy Love


In my stash of digital papers I had this paper I thought was cute for this card but unfortunantly I cannot remember the company that makes this dog paper pattern. I fussy cut out the image (decided not to use the hearts incuded on the image because of the paper used for the background. 

I added some bones to the card from Tim Holtz's Crazy Dog Collection to repeat the pattern of the digital paper. I also added a sentiment that I created in word and the hearts. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative week.  Hope you will join our challenge this month.
