Have a PAWFECT Birthday

Well my son has a German Shorthair that just turned one. So I had to make a birthday card for my Grandpup. My son just loves his dog so both my kids who grew up with cats have converted to dogs. Which works out for them. I used a stamp from Newton's Nook Furr-ever Friends.

Some angels have fur

Well three days in a row with cat cards. Now I don't know why, but like I said before I have my family and friends that are going through a streak of losing their furry ones. Hence another sympathy card was needed after I just made a batch last week. My cousin just lost her 21 year old cat.  For my card, I embossed the white and black and for the photo I couldn't get the black dry embossing to show up. The stamps are from Newton's Nook.

So sorry for the loss of your furry friend

My Best Friend's Mother lost her dog the other day, so I made this card for her.  Her Mother is 87 years old and now she is so depressed because she is at that age where she wants a companion, but is afraid to have another critter in case she herself would pass away.  For this card I embossed some pawprints in the cardstock as well.

With Heartfelt Condolences Pet

I have a cousin who recently had both her cat and then their dog pass away which is just so difficult.  In addition, her daughter passed away as a teenager from an Eating Disorder and it was all around her anniversary which doesn't help.  So I wanted to send her and the family a special sympathy card.  I used the new set that I just got yesterday from Newton's Nook called Furr-ever Friends and then the sentiment is from another great set at TLC, Create.
