Love You More Than Lasagna

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here to share my Love You More Than Lasagna Card! My brother recently had a birthday, and I decided to make a slimline card for him using the Friends Furever Stamp Set by Kindred Stamps!

When he was growing up, he loved anything Garfield! He even had a Garfield stuffy that he carried everywhere with him! I also think he loved lasagna more than Garfield! Lol! The inside sentiment of my card says, “I love you more than Lasagna!”.

The Details of My Card

I coloured Garfield and Odie with my Copic markers just like in the comics! In fact, I decided to use the Slimline Windows Dies for my card since it looked like a comic strip. I placed Garfield in the windows that have cat DSP behind him, and Odie has dog DSP behind him. The doghouse dies were from a limited-edition Kindred Stamps box. The doghouse fitted perfectly on my slimline card! 

The sentiment “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks” was from the stamp set. My brother would get that kind of humour coming from Garfield regarding Odie. Since this was a birthday card, I added the Happy Birthday sentiment to the doghouse.

The only embellishments were the dog bone trinket and Baker’s Twine. I kept the Baker’s Twine long and glued it strategically in certain places to frame the corner and help the eye flow to the other windows.
