Come on - get your minds out of the gutter - this is a family site LOLOL. A friend of mine is the Vice Chairman of the Eastern Counties Dachshund Association and they have 2 shows a year in St. Neots. The first one is in June and the 2nd one is always on November. For the past 2 years, I have been invited to have a stall at the show with the proviso being that the majority of my cards depict dachshunds so I scour the t'internet for suitable pictures and breeders let me use photo's of their own dogs too. I don't have to pay anything to the club for my table and all the proceeds are mine but this year I will give some back to the NCDL (which is the charity that the couple on the next table to me run their bric-a-brac table for). Here's just a couple of the cards I have made so far.
I have decided to go with plain generic cards this year that simply say "Just to say..." cos you can bet your bottom dollar that if they say happy birthday, some one will want an anniversary and vice versa. The inserts simply say "just to say ..." as well.
Last year I did full decoupage and they took me for ever, so this year I am doing pyramage and its a lot quicker. I will also be doing just plain matting and layering too.
I am going to do a selection in the 3 varieties of Dachs too - wires, smooth and long hairs.
Awwww lovely cards Cazz....perfect for the dog show, they look classy as well as cute!
