Doggie Kisses Card Instructions:

To start, trim a piece of white cardstock to 4 x 5.25 inches.  Using a ruler and a pencil, add a light border around the panel .25 inches from the edge.

Trace over the line using the DecoFoil Adhesive Pen, either freehand or by using the ruler as a guide.  If the ruler is used, make sure to clean it off afterwards since the adhesive is very sticky.

Once the adhesive on the panel is dry, place a piece of Teal DecoFoil™ onto it, Silver side down (Teal side up).  Press foil into the adhesive.  You can use a bone folder or your finger.

Start stamping the adorable images! I used a MISTI stamping tool, to make sure everything was laid out the way I wanted, but any acrylic block will work, too.

Stamp the paws in multiple colors.  The MISTI works best for this technique, but it can be done with a block.  Ink up half of the image in one color, then add the second color, slightly overlapping the first color.  This will give a slight ombre effect.

Begin to color in the image using alcohol markers. Start with the lightest colors, then blend in the darker shades.

Once the coloring is done, add foam squares to the back of the panel to add dimension.  Adhere it to a standard top-folding card base (4.25 x 11, scored at 5.5 inches).
