Hello my crafty friends
The Paw Print Panel die is from Your Next Stamp, and I backed that with black card stock before mounting it to my card base. Then I went in and coloured all the little hearts with a black glaze pen so they catch the light.
Inside I used the 3D Pop Up Drop In, but I added two additional cuts and folds to give it a little something extra.
Today's card is for friends whose sweet young dog crossed the Rainbow Bridge last month. These friends have received numerous cards from me over the years, and I wanted to use a different die set so it would be special for them.
For the front of the card I used an idea I saw on Pinterest last year, where just a portion of a dog was punched out of the right side of a die cut heart. I cut two hearts, one from red and one from black. After punching out the dog from the red heart, I backed it with the black one for the silhouette effect. Zoey was a mostly black dog, so I liked that it made the card a little more personal.

The black card stock is very lightweight so I punched four dogs and adhered them on top of each other to create a nice sturdy element.
