When I saw the newest challenge on the   Art Impressions Challenge Blog I knew I had to play along! The challenge is to use a front and back stamped image on the card.  I recently bought the adorable " To the End Set " at my LSS.  I knew it would be perfect for the challenge AND as a birthday card for my aunt.  Front view Inside view. The shaped card was trimmed and a "roof" applied to a standard A2 card size.  The designer paper is from Simple Stories I {Heart} Summer paper pad. The tail end of the pup was adhered to a wobble spring. The inside sentiment was computer generated.
