Relax...


  Hi. I'm back with a second card today- this one is for the new challenge at

the theme is FOUR LEGGED FRIENDS chosen by our lovely Pat K.

Another CAS card, just one layer, a stencil and a couple of stamps. Just love this cute Anita Jeram doggy  (Colorado Stamps). He's doing what every dog I've ever owned has loved to do- rolling on the grass in the sunshine! I've used pencils to colour him to look like our Marvin. The card is for my son's birthday and he's besotted by our dog! He would love to have his own dog but the house is empty most days as both he and his wife are at work and the girls at school so it wouldn't be fair on the animal. It's ok- we let them share our boy for now until their circumstances allow them to get one of their own.

Thanks for visiting my blog today, please check out the Fab'n' Funky blog for more inspiration from the rest of the ladies, I do hope you can join in this fortnight.

  2. That is Marvin for sure, as soon as I looked at this beautiful card I knew it was 'Marvin' themed, haha. Sure your son will love his card, its sad when young ones can't give an animal a good home, but it will come, my son and his little 'crew' have just got a puppy, long awaited the boys are delighted. Happy days Chris. xx

  4. Loverly card with the sunray's on the doggie which is one I've tempted by for ages, as you say it's spot on for what dogs do. Fleur is so subtle (not), every time someone walks past her she rolls over hopeful with a waggy tail.

  18. The sunburst behind the pup gives the whole scene such an easy, contented warmth, and the way you colored him to match Marvin makes the moment feel even more personal. The single‑layer design keeps all the focus on that joyful roll in the grass, and it suits the theme beautifully. Your son is going to smile the second he sees it.
