Wags ‘n Whiskers Challenge DT Card
Well today is Friday so that means we have a new challenge for you over at the Wags n Whiskers Challenge blog. This week’s challenge is set by our very own Nikki and she has chosen the theme ‘Wrap it up!’ – either make a gift bag, box or a tag
Don't forget our challenge is now open to everyone, so that means you DO NOT need to use a Wags 'n Whiskers image.
For my project I decided to make a cute little gift box using the adorable Sweet Danni and Bella image and I’ve coloured it using my ProMarkers and for the fine details (hair) I’ve used my AquaMarker pens
The DP I’ve used is from DCWV Christmas Stack and I’ve inked the edges using Brushed Corduroy distress ink.
The flowers I made myself using my slice machine.
Thanks for stopping by today and hope that you have a wonderful weekend.

We are so excited to announce that we have now opened up the challenges to ALL stamps!!

And any entry using a Wags 'n Whiskers image on their card will be entered into a drawing for a free WnW Digital stamp of your choice!!
Therefore, anyone who uses a Wags 'n Whiskers image will be entered into both prizes of a rubber stamp and a digital stamp!!
The only requirements are that you link directly to your challenge project - not to the main page of your blog. You must have a new project (no back linking). And you must link your card to the challenge post.
If you do not have a blog, you can still enter the challenges by uploading your cards to an open gallery such as Splitcoast Stampers.
For my card I’ve used the gorgeous Angelica and I’ve coloured her using my AquaMarker pens.
The DP is I think Dovecraft and I’ve distressed the edges using my scissors.
