I will try that next time; I think it will look better. The collars all have crystals for a little bling. I only wish I could have made more before the deadline. Maybe next year!
those are wonderful

Most of the silhouettes for the cards and other projects, I use of my own dogs, rescue dogs, or friend's dogs. If I am looking for a certain pose, I will look up a training video on YouTube for a specific breed and when I see a good pose, I will stop the video and take a picture of the screen, with my camera, then down load it to my computer, size it, print, then trace.

From what I understand, you can just put a stamp on them and put in the mail. The post office will not run them through the postage machine. They may or may not require extra postage. Probably not a good idea to put on too many embellishments if mailing and make sure everything is very secure.

Yes, you can write on the back. You put cardstock on the back or 4x6 index cards. Mailing is fine. From what I understand the post office won't run them through the mailing machine.
