Pause for Puppy Paws

If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that dogs have an extraordinary way of filling our lives with pure, uncomplicated love. So today’s cards are all about celebrating our furry family members with the beautiful “Puppy Paws” and coordinating dog-themed designs. Puppy Paws is one of the KOM-panion Kits from the December 2025 - Kit of the Month.

This pair of cards features two sweet pups—each with its own personality—paired with soft backgrounds, earthy tones, and meaningful sentiments that tug at the heart. Whether you're crafting for a fellow dog lover, creating a pet-themed gift set, or simply honoring the little paws that leave the biggest marks on our hearts, these stamps make it easy to design something heartfelt and unique.

On both cards, I started by building paw-print backgrounds for a playful but subtle texture. Then I layered in ink-blended circles, vintage postage, and die-cut elements to create warm compositions that frame the pups beautifully. These cards may be simple in layout, but they’re rich in detail—perfect for letting the artwork shine.
