Party paws

Hi
I recently bought a cute party paws  kit  from crafters companion /hunky-dory. I thought it would make some quick cards for a friend who is raising money for L.A.T.C.H.[a leukemia charity ]She was really happy with them and so I thought I would show you all one of the cute 8x8 cards it made . Not my usual fussy style but I like it .
The hunkydory cardstock is fab quality and the large die cut decoupage is lovely .I just added some black cardstock and my fave embellie [gems]
