This little project is an idea that came straight from the Stampin’ Up! Idea Book & Catalog.  On page 75 is the Friends Fur-ever stamp set.  And right above it is this cute little box.  Now I made a few changes to my version.  First I used different colors.  Mine actually came from the Color Coach.  I pulled the So Saffron card and on the back is the Sweet Set combination of So Saffron, Riding Hood Red and Soft Suede.  A perfect combination for this project in my opinion!

I stamped in Jet Black StazOn ink and did some watercoloring and some cutting out.  Yes that little bone is a pain to cut out but I think it is so cute popped up and tied with the linen thread.  Not everyone in my class did that part.  I did show them how to do the masking technique for this.  Basically you stamp the little wagon first on your card stock.  Then stamp it again on a post-it note and cut it out right along the lines – you don’t want to leave any edge for this technique.  Then cover your image on the card stock with the post it note so you can stamp the bones so they look like they are inside the wagon.

Then the other fun thing I did was stamp the bone on the twill ribbon – instant matching ribbon! 

Fill this little box with some dog treats for your new neighbors!  Won’t they think your the best when you bring something for their dog! 

The box by the way is the Box #2 XL die for the Big Shot.  Have fun!
