Today's card features what is probably my all time favourite stamp...and certainly one of my oldest stamps...'Birthday Dog' by Penny Black. I stamped him on to watercolour paper, then carefully cut him out. I used washi tape (from Poundland & Dovecraft), directly on my card blank, to make a simple background. I added a sentiment (from the 'Birthday Buddies' set by Paper Smooches), then popped Birthday Dog on top using 3D foam pads.
