Stamping cats and dogs with CCC
Hello my fabulous friends,

And a special welcome to all the new cats and dogs joining the Anita Jeram stamp collection!

Yes, you read that right! Colorado Craft Company has added a bunch of new cats and dogs to the Anita Jeram line with today's Furry Friend release!
To celebrate this new release, Colorado Craft Company has some amazing give aways... more on that below-
But first, let's take a look at these fun new stamps!
(photo overload ahead! I just couldn't stop! 😆)
These sweet pups are from Best of Me. Each of the dogs are separate stamps, so you can easily use them individually or together.
If you follow me over on Instagram you'll know I've been having fun with watercolor backgrounds lately, and I have recently discovered a fun way to add some foil edging to my watercolor using a Glaze pen... kinda in love.
For those of you who don't want to mask, there are coordinating dies available for these cuties.
For my cat lovers, Lift Higher is an adorable set.. The kitties and tree are all one image so you have an instant scene! The sentiment is a little hard to read in my photo, but it reads "Surround yourself ONLY with people who are going to lift you HIGHER. - Opera Winfrey"
The coordinating die for this set can be found HERE.
Treat Yourself reminded me of my friend's dog and cat (though, his lab is too energetic to calmly lick the kitty... LOL!) This set has 2 dogs and a cat as well as a jar of treats and sentiments.
Coordinating dies are available for even easier scene creating.
This Picnic Cats set is a fun little scene image! While everything you see in this scene is one stamp, the set also includes individual stamps of the basket, plate of fish, and plate of cakes so you can add more dishes or pop up the dishes already there for more dimension.
The coordinating dies make popping up the plates super easy!
Couldn't resist playing with another watercolor background for this sweet puppy... Play Ball is all about play after all!
I hand cut the dog so I could attach him to the card with foam tape, but if you aren't crazy about hand cutting (and I totally understand if you aren't!) you can get the coordinating dies.
For a little extra spoiling, get the coordinating die set...
Team Cats is another sweet scene stamp... it also individual bows and bird house so you can pop those elements up in you want.
Again, the coordinating die set makes adding dimension to your scene super easy!
The last two sets I combined together.... Well, technically this card has three sets.
The dog is from Stay Pawsitive (I think this is my favorite dog from the release!).. This set also includes a bone, a food dish, and some stars- along with sentiments.
The bird is from the new mini set- Tiny Birds Worm. The stamps in this set are adorable but tiny. They make great additions to larger stamps (like the bird sitting on the dog). The set includes a nest, an empty branch, a branch with a small bird, a branch with 2 birds, a single bird and a little worm--- all crammed into a mini stamp set!
The sentiment is from Treat Yourself.
There are coordinating dies for Stay Pawsitive, and for Tiny Birds Worm as well.
If you're having a hard time choosing a favorite, don't worry, I did too! If you want to get the whole release (and save 10%), click HERE.
