A Boy and his Dog

A friend of mine ordered a birthday card for her brother who lives in Charlotte, NC with his airdale terrier. I wanted to make a nice homey scene for this card. I used one of my new QuicKutz embossing folders to make the house look like elegant stone. I love the versatility of the QuicKutz house and tree dies because I used them in this Halloween card but it looks completely different here.
