Today is Send a Card to a Friend Day and I have some questions!

What do you think about first when you sit down to start making a greeting card?  I start thinking about it long before I lay down in our stamp room and tell Ann what to make.  Do you start with the layout?  The stamps?  The colors?

Right now, I’m in the middle of a discussion with my Design Team on what card to send out to our clients.  (We send you a card when you shop with us that you can keep or reuse to send to a friend.)  My gal pal Doodles and I are in deep discussions about this even now.

She’s a Southern Dog and believes that Pistachio Pudding is an appropriate color for alligators.  I think that Garden Green or Gumball Green or Wild Wasabi would be better.

So I set out to prove her wrong about those colors.  I took the parts she mentioned and altered them in my “Top Stamping Dog” way and this is what I came up with.  My layout is a bit different and I asked the alligator to embellish mine by doing a taste test.  And of course, he had to have a roving eye made of pearl.

What do you think?  I’ve got just 10 days until Ann’s birthday so I need to have everything caught up quick!
