A Little Puppy Love

I've just got back from Chicken and cat sitting again...and if I hadn't watched 'The Private Life of Chickens' the other night, I'd be very worried indeed about Sidney, and the umm, extra 'bits' she appears to have grown! But the story about Sidney can wait for another day...when I've got pictures!
Thought I'd make a quick card with one of my own little digi's for a change. I chose this little puppy dog, seeing he appears to be (so far) the favourite! He started life off carrying a slipper and then a chewed newspaper, but I swapped those for a birthday card. Of course this card didn't start off looking like it does now either. It started off with flowery paper, loads more flowers, some ribbons, glitter and a charm. But, well... they just didn't look right, not for a dog!
The paw print papers are a freebie from Pixie Paw Print Papers. Link on my side bar. The dog collar and 'woof' disc are also freebies from Canon Creative Park HERE you'll find other papers there too. here
The font is also a freebie, already mentioned in posts below and on side bar. (Oh!! tell us Lyn, you know how lazy we are!!) Pea's Lesley's Happy Font, download it for free HERE
The acetate was cut out from a huge Easter egg box, which I saved just for this very moment. Sorry, I ate the chocolate egg some months ago. (And very nice it was too!)
I've still got the flowery version of this card (and with an acetate window) I'll probably stick a Tilda on it later and post it tomorrow, when I come back from another bout of cat and chicken sitting!!
The paper you can see through the acetate window is a Christmas Pink Petticoat one, but i don't think that matters!
No D.T. cards this weekend as it's the B Teams turn. If you want to know what the next challenge is over on One Stitch At A Time, you'll jolly well have to pop over and have a look.....oh...I'll tell you, it's Use Your Digi's!!! (and I did!)

New Baby Card

I made this New Baby card over the weekend. I sliced about an inch off the front so I could fix the B.A.B.Y. wording on the inside but so you could still see it on the front. This was part of another set available as a freebie from Canon Creative Park, (loads to hunt out) I've just added a punched stamp shape to the back of the letters and fixed them on with 3D foam pads.
The 3D decoupage sheet, with the lovely little animals on the dresser, came from Craft Creations, via my local (not very crafty) shop. I think it was about 39p so, well worth it! I've layered it using silicone glue. I knew I had some blue gingham somewhere, but could I find it? No, that's what happens when you tidy up! So I quickly hunted through Google and came up with this lovely gingham freebie from Activity Village . Other colours are available, in fact you'll find all sorts over there. The pink safety pin, (I didn't have blue!) tiny buttons and ribbon were from stash. For the insert, I fixed two scalloped circles onto one side of the paper and printed over them, then peeled off the circles so there's a nice white space to write on, or even add a sentiment later. I then printed on the other side too. I haven't used any glitter yet, buy I might do.

I've posted this on the timer, so I hope it comes out ok and that there's not too many spelling mistakes!!
