365 Cards - Day 254 - 3 P's

Aloha and welcome to another wonderful Wednesday at 365 Cards! Today's challenge is to use the 2 P's that Pam picked which are Pet and Pink and add one more of your own. For mine I first picked "Patterned Paper" and then I noticed that two of my patterned papers have "Polka dots" so that fits too!!

Anyway, a little about my card...it's for Malie (my puppy) to give her Auntie Kate for letting her stay with her all day Sunday! This weekend I took the initial Copic and the Intermediate Copic certification courses with Marianne Walker!! So fabulous but a lot of information for such a short time...Sunday's class was 9am-8pm!!! I couldn't leave Malie at home all alone for that long so she went to her Auntie Kate's house all day! Thank you Auntie Kate!

And can I say how much I love this My Mind's Eye Stella and Rose 6x6 paper!! I went a little crazy combining all these wonderful patterns...of course this was after hearing Marianne instruct on Sunday that using more than one patterned paper at a time was probably too much! Oh well, when I go over the top, I really go over!!
