Trio of welsh barbers and fibres

Managed to get 2 in 1 this week, the dcm challenge this week was to use 3 die cuts and the Caardvarks challenge was to use fibres on your card:

Here are Lythan's "simple" rules:If you don't have access to die cuts in any shape or from, you can still play along. You can then use punches. And if you don't have punches then you can do hand cutting. See how nice I am?BUT no cheating now! No reaching for the scissors if you have a machine to hand - or even some old die cuts you bought ages ago (that would be me then!) You CAN use punches and scissors etc as well as die cuts though. See, very nice!!

I had to make a card for DD1 this week from her brothers and sister as it doesn't look like they are going to get around to making one themselves so I decided as I had this cute little cricut chihuahua I would base the card around that. Although we have a little dog she would love a chihuahua to carry around like Paris!
supplies: Cricut dog, 2 floral punches, Paper Stella ruby, copper, black and green cardstock, resist technique using clear pigment ink and chalks used on pearlescent ivory card with See D's bone stamp. Dovecraft christmas fibres, Basic Grey tiny word brad, sister greeting cut from Basic Grey sublime words .

Fabulous card Deb.
So unusual, I love to see different ideas.
I have retrieved my mid week card from the bin & am having another bash!! I lost all confidence in myself & my work last week & threw in the towel. Then I felt lost without it all!! Thankfully mojo is back :0)
