WELCOME Belle and Macy- TIOT 49

HAPPY NEW YEAR and WELCOME BACK !! I want to thank all of you for your support and inspiration this past year. I wish you a wonderful and prosperous 2010.

I absolutely love this image. It is Jami from the Hearts and Hugs Series #2 by Victoria Case for SCACD.

Our challenge for the first week of 2010 is to make a welcome card or project. Well, I am making a card to welcome the latest new members of my daughters family - Belle and Macy. They are a mixture of Shepherd and Husky and are almost 4 months old. They are so cute !!! I just visited my daughter last week in Alabama and the little furbabies slept with me every night. They are house trained and well behaved. Only problem was, like little babies, they woke up every morning around 5:00am and wanted to play. Fortunately, my daughter has dog doors and they could go outside and play.

Now to the card. The image is colored with Copics with a little Stickles added on her shirt, pants and on the puppy collar. I sponged the eggshell background cardstock with a chocolate ink to add a little depth. NOTICE the Glitter Button. I can't believe how versatile these buttons are. Susana has these in the store. This button was a light pink and I colored it with my Copic and it didn't change the glitter effect at all. The dog collar charm was pewter and I colored it with my Copic and added Stickles and a rhinestone. Even little furbabies need a little glitz.

Meet Macy and Belle. Aren't they sweet? There is a little hole in the back yard and they love to lay in it.

DON"T FORGET to check out the other DT blogs. I am always amazed at the talent and inspiration they provide.

NEW PRODUCTS:

Susana has stocked some new products in the store. The new Lockhart stamps are really, really cute. Some are for Valentines which will be here before you know it.

Thank you for stopping by and viewing my card. If you have time, please let me know what you think.

Hugs,
