i love the new Claudene Helmut stamps! they are so quirky and yet so versatile and free from all life's hang-ups. so i just had to try them out on this lovable puppy layout. there's quite a bit of dimension going on here with several of the paper layers raised. loved how those old paper bee's came in handy and a bit more modern teamed together with dear lizzy bee paper.

i stamped the shadow in silver acrylic paint and then black versafine on top of that. the roof was stamped again and raised.

some more techniques here with a beautiful resist effect using distress inks - and of course some new Hour of 3 stamps.

and some favourite buttons grouped with a 7gypsies rub-on!

thanks for looking! hope you all are having a fabulous week so far...being only Monday!
