OMG! I cannot even tell you how FUN this card was to do! LOL!
I have NEVER done anything like it before.
I told you that I wanted to make a special card for Kathie, for the Daisy book she made me –>HERE
I wanted it to be as special, and as awesome as her book. OK so it won’t be AS awesome as her book, but still heartfelt, and a thought out thank you, so I hope she likes it.
I wanted to do another “shaped” card. But didn’t want to duplicate my Hydrant, and I did do a Dog Bone shaped one a while ago, that got published.
Here it is-
Paper Made Easy- June 2007 pg 52
BUT, I struggled, cause I wanted to give her something with a photo of Daisy.
Plus I am HUGE on making every card SPECIAL!
Then the LIGHT BULB went off!
I took a photo of Daisy that I felt could be cut up, and made 3D! I printed off 4 of the same photo. It was a 4×6 size. I then began cutting and layering her head! She is just as cute in a 3D photo! LOL! It made it POP out at you like she was right there.
I originally had her standing-like in the photo. Then I thought, how cool it would be for her to be sitting in a dog house?
So I got my coluzzel and cut a 1/2 oval using Bazzil textured cardstock. I had layered the colluzzel over her head to figure the correct size.
Then onto the roof.
The bone and sentiment are from Puppy Love by CTMH (I swear I LOVE that set SOOOO much-same set used for the hydrant card).
It came together relatively fast. About 45 minutes. Not too bad.
Doodlebug paperfrills were used on the roof-and for the grass.
I think it is SO cute!
Jason said it needed MORE. HELLO! Her head POP’s right out at you! What MORE do you need?
You have to know when to STOP sometimes.
I think I’m going to try MORE photo 3 -D cards!
Although I think you can cross a line between cute to CREEPY! Maybe stop while I’m ahead! LOL!
Thanks for looking.
Till Tomorrow-

That is awesome! I love the 3D-ness of Daisy. Yesterday when you said 3D Daisy I thought you meant a flower like yesterday’s card. I never thought you meant Daisy the dog! Totally took me by surprise on that one. Have a great day. -Molly B
This is adorable! 😀 So cute and fun, I love the dimension with the multiple Daisy layers!! I’m sure she’ll love it!♥
Oh my goodness! How CUTE is this?! It’s awesome Lauren! I love it! hahaha @ Jason saying it needs more. I always laugh when Brian comments on my cards. If I say something back then he wants to challenge me to a Card-Off…ugh….we’ve done it before. It’s fun but he is too distracting, asking where things are and how do you use this or that. I think he does it on purpose to through my concentration off…lol
OK…off topic! Your card is too cute! I’m sure Kathie will totally adore it!

This is adorable, I think I might try the 3-D effect with a pic of my puppy. He’s a lot bigger than your adorable Daisy. 🙂

Oh this is so sweet! What a fun idea to pop up the photo like that!
So freaking, stinking cute!!!! Tempting to do this with a picture of my cat sometime! Absolutely love how it turned out!
LOL Lauren! This is just so cute. I love the bow on the head! I might try that with a photo of my dog, only I’m thinking a bobbley head! LOL!
totally adorable Lauren! Kathie will LOOOOVE it, no doubt! cool idea to cut out and layer the pieces of the photo… 🙂 awesome.
Just adorable! You always have such great, creative ideas! Thanks for sharing them with us!
Daisy is too cute!!! Love the cards too. They are just plain original Lauren!!! My “Piper” (aussie) is so afraid of the flash and the camera, that everytime I try to get a picture of her, she runs away….LOL She is just the smartest dog. My Amy says that she is a human trapped in a dogs body. I sometimes have to wonder if that is true. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Oh Lauren, this is too cute. Tell Jason, it’s cute as is, any more would be creepy.
What a cool idea!!!!
This is awesome! I would have never thought to layer from a picture like that!
This card is STUNNING and you are a genius! TFS.
Adorable! love the 3d pup!
Nothing could be creepy about sweet Daisy. She is so adorable…and even more so 3-D! 😉

Lauren, These cards are so cute, I had to chuckle when I saw the cute little doggie. Once again you are the “Best”, your cards just get better and better. You definitely open our eyes to new and stylish ways to do cards.
A Big Thanks

hiya Lauren!
I love your Daisy, it’s kind of similar to something I did the other day, except not with my dog but rather a dog from a napkin! I learnt a new technique with acetate and mod podge… then made the card in the link (Happy Birthday Dog)!
Your Daisy is adorable a fun.. I think mine’s a little more masculine… what do you think?
Keep up the stunning work… I always have trouble kee[ping my cards simple and clean, thanks for the hints
this is adorable!
