I almost went the floral route, but then thought one of the adorable pups in the Christmas Puppies stamp set from Gerda Steiner Designs would fit the bill and created this.
I kept it clean and simple (CAS) this time. Stamped the puppy with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a scrap of X-Press It cardstock. Coloured it in the colours of the challenge with Copic Sketch markers, then die cut it out with the matching die. Die cut two more times from regular thick cardstock and stacked for dimension.
