Pet Sympathy from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a pet sympathy card that my friend Jess requested. One of her other friends just lost their Corgi named Rocket.

I immediately thought of the M4584 – Day Spent Window from Art Impressions.



I know so many people say that the animal crosses the "Rainbow Bridge" when they pass so I wanted to have a rainbow on the card. I used 5725 – Nested Square Dies5463 – Slimline Dies Set for the banner,  Bleed Proof White to add some fur texture to the Corgi, 5543 – Journal Template Die Set for the heart and 5562 – Journal Letter Die Set for ROCKET.



A student at school gave me this card with some sweet gifts.  I hate to recycle something that I can reuse.  I decided to pull the cloud and rainbow off and repurpose them for the card. Imagine my surprise when there turned out to be two rainbows!  I made two cards to give her a choice.



I die cut a cloud that I have to cover over the text that I didn't need.



I went to Google and tried to find a Corgi to copy.  I found this photo and on the orange trimmed card I masked off the ear and tried to draw an ear to look like his.  I hope this somewhat resembles what the real Rocket looked like.




I cut off the sentiment because I just wasn't sure.  It's a BEAUTIFUL verse but talks about spending the day together.  Since they can no longer do that I wasn't sure if that would be painful for them.  Better safe than sorry.  I'll save using the stamp and verse for when a friend gets a new dog.
