simon says stamp: animal antics

Time for a new challenge over on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog. This week's challenge is  Animal Antics and the design team is using products from Stampendous. I love the mixed media stamps by Nathalie Kalbach for Stampendous, and they are perfect for any type of card project. I used the big "wire" stamp from the Wired set as a backdrop for this cute critters at the dog park. They certainly seem to be having fun!
