This is the card I made for Marvin's best buddy's family. Watson is also a Red Fox Lab. he's just a few months older than Marv and they look like two peas in a pod...they have the most wonderful walks together...or rather galloping, leaping, bundling runs- not a lot of walking goes on , a joy to watch.
I tried very hard to get Marvin to wear a Santa hat and pose for a photo to use on the card...but no chance- that hat will never be the same again. So I drew a dog (cheated a bit, drew my own version of an image I found online) scanned it and added a hat (Mo Manning digi), copied and flipped it so I had 2 dogs then coloured using my markers. Watson's owner loves it!
I'm totally recovered from the Covid now, my O?H is nearly there- he managed to get a man-cold on top and we all know what THAT means! daughter and son in law much better- and no longer infectious ,so fingers crossed we will be having our family Christmas as planned.
Whatever you are doing, and with whom I hope you have a wonderful time. Merry Christmas!
Hugs

Oh my gosh I love this image. What a fun Christmas card.
This card is adorable and sounds perfect for the recipients. I hope you all got together ok for Christmas and the New Year!! Happy New Year to you all, wishing you health and happiness!
Haha, sounds like Marvin thought he was getting an early Christmas present with that hat Chris! Your plan B is so impressive - what a brilliant result drawing your own dogs! I bet Watson's family were delighted with this personalised card. You have inspired me and I might take a deep breath and try something similar with a golden retriever image! Glad you are all on the mend now. Happy new year! Vicky x
