I know I tend to use more felines than canines on my cards but this adorable pup (by Tiddly Inks) reminds me of a little Scotty dog we got when he was about 10 weeks old and I was about 10 years old. He promptly got dubbed "Puffball" and despite some outrageously long, elegant, and highly proper name which was shown on his pedigree papers, he remained "Puffball" for the rest of his life. :-D
I colored him with my black, gray, and lavender ProMarkers, die cut him with my largest stitched squares set (Cheery Lynn) and then cut a mat from purple CS with a larger die from the same set. Before framing the image with it, I ran it through the embossing machine using my "Linen" embossing folder.
The ribbon is from my stash and the butterflies have been waiting to be used for way too many moons. A nice CAS design to showcase this wonderful puppy.

Hi Connie! This is so super sweet and a linen embossing folder I think I have to have! I thought I had them all, but I truly am missing this one. It looks fantastic with the layout. What an adorable remembrance of your puppy.
Thanks so much for joining my challenge this week and I hope you enjoyed your vacation :)

Hi Connie! I'm following up to see if you can tell me where you got the linen embossing folder? I've searched the web and can't seem to find it.
Let me know please :)
Thanks!
