Apologies for the awful quality of the photo. I really will have to find somewhere better to take my photos.
I started with some Create and Craft glitter cardstock and was a little worried that the glitter might interfere with my Cricut but it worked like a dream. I probably wouldn't cut it every day on the Cricut but once in a while is fine. The red layers are Cor'dinations. Then I cut the hair, shoes, scarf layer (just seen at the collar) and cuffs in brown pearlescent cardstock. Finally I cut the top scarf layer and hat border with a mushroom cardstock.
The greyhound was cut with the same brown pearlescent cardstock and a textured lighter brown paper. I'll be honest and say that I forgot to cut his collar so I just improvised and cut a piece of the cardstock to fit. I'm sure Cricut would do a much better job though!
I mat and layered with the same cardstock for the base and then added a hand-drawn lead. The sentiment was from Create and Craft as part of the free Club Members gift from a while back. I used a Papermania brown inkpad to mach the image.
I hope that the recipient loved it as much as I loved making it!
Happy Cricutting,
