Hot Diggity Dog!

We long for an affection altogether ignorant of our faults. Heaven has accorded this to us in the uncritical canine attachment. ~George Eliot

Sharing another card made with the Stampin Up! Design paper pack “Playful Pets”. These cards are going into my doggo donation pile for Gilbert Dogs 24/7 for them to sell during an upcoming fundraiser.

This card involves a small bit of paper piecing. I stamped the dog image on gray cardstock then fussy cut out. I also stamped the image on white paper and fussy cut the party hat and eye.
I used a tiny pom pom which I rolled around in red ink for the top of the party hat.  


Supplies
  • Card Candy from Close to My Heart
  • Cardstock from The Paper Studio (base) and Stampin Up!
  • Circle die from My Favorite Things
  • Design Paper from Stampin Up!

Phoenix Paper Crafters Paper Pack Challenge: You Arff the Best!

I had to have company — I was made for it, I think — so I made friends with the animals. They are just charming, and they have the kindest disposition and the politest ways; they never look sour, they never let you feel that you are intruding, they smile at you and wag their tail, if they've got one, and they are always ready for a romp or an excursion or anything you want to propose. ~Mark Twain

Sunday Song & Rhyme: Give me Wings

Books make great gifts because they have whole worlds inside of them. - Neil Gaiman

Today a new Sunday Song & Rhyme Challenge has started at The Outlawz Challenges and will run through April 3rd

Our sponsor this month is Lizzy Love of Oddball Art
$10.00 Virtual gift certificate

The current challenge was selected by Margaret

The Butterfly Song (If I Were a Butterfly) Psalty & Ernie Rettino

If I were a butterfly
I'd thank you, Lord, for giving me wings
And if I were a robin in a tree
I'd thank you, Lord, that I could sing
And if I were a fish in the sea
I'd wiggle my tail, and I'd giggle with glee
But I'd just thank you Father for making me me
'Cause you gave me a heart
And you gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus
And you made me your child
And I just thank you Father for making me me
If I were an elephant
I'd thank you, Lord, by raising my trunk
And if I were a kangaroo
I'd just hop right up to you
And if I were an octopus
I'd thank you, Lord, for my good looks
But I'd just thank you Father for making me me

I was inspired by everything here and since I love to read, I chose an image with books since that is a way to find out more about anyone or anything mentioned in this poem!


Supplies used
  • Image printed on Stampin Up! Whisper White cardstock
  • Cardstock from The Paper Studio (base) and Stampin Up!
  • Dies from Creative Expressions and Reasonable Craft Dies

Phoenix Paper Crafters Paper Pack Challenge: More Dogs

I talk to him when I'm lonesome like; and I'm sure he understands.

For the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes, but never a friend like that. ~W. Dayton Wedgefarth

Happy Easter!

I am the Easter Bunny; I’ve been hopping all around
Hiding Easter goodies just waiting to be found.
Some are easy, some are hard,
Their hidden all around your yard.
In the grass and flower bed,
Eggs of yellow, blue and red.
Look up high and look down low,
Where they lie you do not know.
Look in bushes, look in trees,
Look behind your Father’s knees.
Look inside your Mother’s hair,
There may be some hidden there.
Keep on searching till you’re done,
Until you have found every one.
I hope you find this poem funny,
From your friend
The Easter Bunny
