Now that I've made all of the formal introductions, let's get on to the projects!

I thought it was appropriate to start this post off with a holiday project, just as the set was intended.

I started with the background.  I stamped Background Basics: Sheet Music in Classic Kraft and then added the *song lyrics* from Come All Ye Faithful Additions in Ripe Avocado.  I love the way you can subtly see the sheet music through the letters.

I die-cut the dog from Classic Kraft cardstock and stamped the coordinating dog image in Dark Chocolate.  I added the sweater trim in Simply Chartreuse and the sweater body in Ripe Avocado.

I added the evergreen bough images from Love Lives Here: Holiday around the dog in Ripe Avocado and the berries in Scarlet Jewel.  The card was finished off with a Scarlet Jewel card base.

Now for something a bit more bold and bright!  I thought the house outline from Gingerbread Lane looked a bit like a doghouse, so that was the jumping point for this project.  I heat embossed the house onto a Classic Kraft card front using White Filigree Embossing Powder.

I die-cut the dog from white cardstock and stamped it with the coordinating dog image in Fine Linen.  The sweater trim was added in Raspberry Fizz and the polka-dotted sweater body in Simply Chartreuse.  The Polka Dot Parade #9 star die allowed me to add the perfect embellishment to the sweater in Raspberry Fizz felt.  I adore this string of lights that is included in the additions set, the detail of the die really makes it.  I stamped the cord in Dark Chocolate and then added light bulbs in Hawaiian Shores, Raspberry Fizz and Simply Chartreuse.  

I added a strip of Hawaiian Shores cardstock to the bottom of the card to help ground everything and provide a place to add the sentiment.  This sentiment is from Love Lives Here: Holidays and heat embossed with White Filigree Embossing Powder.  I also added the Loop de Loop II Border die in white cardstock.

Raspberry Fizz Baker's Twine was the last thing I added which helped to add a bit more balance and take up the empty space that was leftover to the right of the dog image.  Everything is adhered to a Classic Kraft card base.

My next project is a bit more simple in design and features subdued colors.

I die-cut the dog from some old bookprint and the sweater from Aqua Mist cardstock.  I stamped the details on the sweater in Ocean Tides.  The angel wing was die-cut from white cardstock and stamped it with the coordinating image in Soft Stone.  The halo was heat embossed directly onto the Fine Linen card front using Gold Filigree Embossing Powder.

These sentiments, from Come All Ye Faithful Additions, were added wit True Black and gold heat embossing again.  I just LOVE the fonts that Erin selected for these sets.  They really have such a polished look to them.

I added slim strips of white cardstock above and below the sentiments with 1/8" Scor-tape.  An Ocean Tides card base finishes it all off.

Now I have a few non-holiday projects to share with you, showcasing how you can use these sweet little pups for occasions all year round.  There are SO many of our previously released sets that can be mixed and matched with elements from Come All Ye Faithful and the Additions.  Here I opted to work in Scattered Showers!

I stamped the dog directly onto my Classic Kraft card front with True Black ink.  The sweater was die-cut from Pure Poppy cardstock and then I stamped the coordinating images onto it in VersaMark.  I die-cut the umbrella from Harvest Gold cardstock and stamped it in Summer Sunrise.  I used a 2-way glue pen to adhere embossing powder and heat set the polka dots.  I stamped the handle directly onto the sweater and background with True Black ink and then added the umbrella top with foam tape.  The sentiment, also from Scattered Showers, was heat embossed with White Filigree Embossing Powder.

To help ground everything I added two slim strips of Pure Poppy cardstock that was stamped with Sew Simple Borders using True Black ink.

The dog seemed to be missing just a little something, so I added a black rhinestone as has nose.

After digging some more through my collection I stumbled accross this little graduation cap from Tag-its #4.  I stamped it onto Smokey Shadow cardstock with True Black ink and cut it out with small sharp scissors.  

The dog was die-cut from Ocean Tides cardstock and flipped over so the dog was facing the opposite direction.  I impressed the die-cut shape with the Linen & Canvas impression plate.  The bow tie from the Additions set was the perfect finishing touch.

I created the background with the Cover Plate: Center Stage die.  I die-cut white cardstock with it and adhered it to a block of Soft stone, then cut it down to the size I wanted.  The sentiment, from For the Graduate, was added to the white cardstock strip using True Black ink.

Birthday Style ended up being another great set to pair with these sweet canines.  I die-cut this dog from Soft Stone polka-dotted paper to start things off.

He looked like he needed to hold a bunch of balloons.  So I stamped the balloons and then used white crochet thread to connect the balloons together and tie them with a bow.

The "Wag" sentiment from Come All Ye Faithful Additions was paired up with the "Party Animal" sentiment from It's a Jungle Out There.

I combined all of the borders in Birthday Style at the bottom of the card to help ground the dog.

I wanted something subtle as a card base to the colors of the balloons remain at the forefront.  So I opted to use Soft Stone, and I ended up being really happy with my choice.  

I have one last project to share with you today which is more of an invitation rather than a card.  

I decided to use a bit of an unconventional color for the dog and stamped him in Enchanted Evening.  The sweater was added with Limeade Ice and New Leaf.  I used the new Stitching Lines die to add stitching to the top of my card using white crochet thread.

I used "Come" from Come All Ye Faithful Additions in New Leaf to start out my sentiment.  "STAY" was spelled out with the Fresh Alphabet using Limeade Ice ink under that.  It was finished off with "You're invited" from By Invitation in Enchanted Evening.  I die-cut a slim banner from New Leaf gingham paper using the Sketched Shapes die and added it under my white focal strip.
