The image is a new stamp by Milton & Co. that I've got when I won a challenge few weeks ago, but as the envelope didn´t have any name, nor address I don´t know who sent it, only I know it came from England :) I inked it for first time and stamped it with tuxedo black Memento Ink and colored it with acuarelable pencils. As a mat I used a red cardstock.
The background is white cardstock and I used my beloved sizzix (one of my favorite tools since I've got it!) with a "Vines" folder by QuicKutz. As embellishment I used a gorgeous red ribbon with a white stitch on the edges, three red gems (Hirschberg Schutz & Co.) And the sentiment is a freebie by Create with TLC (thank you, Paulette!)
EDITED: Is this a dog or a bear? For me, this is a dog, but in some comments I see that people see it as a bear... please, can you tell me what you see?
