W2CB #34: Happiness Is a Warm Puppy

Yep, we gals at Word 2 Craft By are huge dog lovers. So, we just couldn't resist choosing this Charles Schulz quote in honor of Adopt a Shelter Dog month.

Happiness is a warm puppy.

So, here's a pic of our beloved -- and rather spoiled -- 14-year-old shelter puppy, hanging out in one of his favorite locations.  :)


Here are a couple of cards sent to friends who have recently welcomed fur babies into their homes.

Tim Holtz Crazy Dogs, stamped in StazOn jet black and colored with Prismacolor pencils
Distress Inks: peacock feathers, tumbled glass, shaded lilac, hickory smoke, applied with blending tool

And, here's a birthday card I made for hubby.

So, do you love these Crazy Dogs as much as I do? W2CB I-Teamer Annie is offering up a set of these adorable stamps to the winner of our W2CB Challenge.

Hope you'll join us over at W2CB. We'll be happier than a puppy with a new chew toy when you do.  :)

  1. I love your cards, of course, Sybrina - they are just too cute! Your dog is adorable - my Brody just turned 13 last Saturday and he's had a rough year, so he "celebrated" all weekend with special treats! Thank you for your comments on my blog - you are too sweet but I sure do appreciate the love :-)
