Blast from the past!

Hello and welcome back! Today's card is for my cousin's birthday. She's a veterinary technician, so something with puppers seemed appropriate.

This is one of the very first stamp sets I purchased when I started as a demo. And it's from before we had thin dies, so fussy cutting was necessary. When I started to put the card together, I felt like it needed something extra, like ribbon. Then I remember that I had this gray stitched ribbon in my stash - perfect!

This card is for the challenge at Retro Rubber. The stamps I used for this card last appeared in the 2011-2012 Annual Catalog, so they are definitely older than a year!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
