Ruff Day?

I'm loving the Stampin' Up set that I recently purchased on eBay called "Ruff Day". This is my 2nd card using this set. The other one was posted a few days ago, and it's called "Have a Ter-Ruff-ic Day!"


I used colored pencils and gamsol to color the image. The card front is Cuttlebugged and ticket punched. The ribbon is Basic Grey, and I added a silk Prima with a brad. It's so simple, but I think the black and white color scheme is fantastic. I'm really pleased with the way this card turned out. Who could continue having a bad day after looking at this cute puppy?

Thanks for stopping by!
