Rainbow Bridge II

For those of us who have had to endure the loss of a furry family member, you're probably familiar with the poem Rainbow Bridge, if not you can read this heart touching poem here.

This card was created using two sets from my pet sympathy stamp series, "Rainbow Bridge" and "FurEver in our Hearts".

I stamped the bridge with Stazon black ink onto white card stock and colored it with Prismacolor pencils.  Then I took a damp paintbrush and slightly blended the colors together then fussy cut it out without leaving any white edges.

For the sky I die cut 3 of the same sized Stitched Clouds out of post-it note and secured them to the white rectangle, then I sponged on SU! Bashful Blue ink around them.  I stamped the sentiment with black Versafine ink.

I used the paw trail from "FurEver in our Hearts" and inked up only the rows I wanted then stamped them in the sky area.  I stamped the same rows onto the bridge (before placing on the card) letting the last two paws stamp off the edge onto scrap paper.  I added foam tape to the back of the bridge and carefully lined up the bridge paws with the sky paws.

And here is another version with a heart border from our Card Builder Many Thanks die set.
