How cute is this little Scottie dog??!! I've had this Sizzix Bigz Die for a few years (bought on sale) and then never created with him. (seems to be a common theme with me??!!)
I was going to put him 'on' a card - but when I took out the die - I realized he was a bit bigger than an A2 size card - so I made him a stand up Scottie dog! He measures 5 1/2" nose to tail, 5 1/4" ear to foot so he'll fit in a 5x7 envelope or a 6x6. Maybe he'll need one extra stamp if mailed?!
The eye and nose are little die cuts and I colored them a bit with a white pencil so they would show up. The collar is also part of the die and I cut it out of black and then patterned paper and glued them together and then on his neck. I die cut the the holly, layered the berries and leaves and adhered it with a foam dot. The Woof Woof is gold embossed.
