Newton's Nook Designs June Release Day 2

Hi everyone!  Today is day 2 of the June release over at Newton's Nook Designs.  I'm sharing this very sentimental stamp set, Furr-Ever Friends.  As you may know, I recently lost my sweet and loyal dog Dahlila.  She was with our family for 12 wonderful years.  I cannot tell you how special it was to receive cards, especially handmade cards from friends that were thinking of my family during this time.  

I love that the cat and dog are both in silhouette.  And the little accessories, the wings, halo and paw print are so sweet.  I designed both of these cards in a bit of an understated way.  I felt the images and sentiments should really be the main focus.  And now I have special cards to share when the time comes to extend my sympathies for the loss of a furbaby.

Thanks to everyone for stopping by, please scroll down to learn how to win this stamp set!

  3. Such a wonderful stamp set! Pet sympathy cards are so helpful... I lost my 13 year old pug on June 4th; it's so hard, but it is comforting to receive a card, and know that you're not alone! This set would be perfect to have on hand!

  30. I remember when you posted about Dahlila, I cried. She was such a pretty dog, beautiful coloring, and seemed like a good pup. Oddly, I tend to bond with animals more than people, so their passing strikes me harder. These must have been so difficult for you to make, but they are lovely. <3
