3French Hens

I didn't get a card made for last weeks Less is More Challenge as our poor Dog Toby who my lovely followers and visitors may remember has been limping for a while was finally diagnosed with Hip dysplasia and canine arthritis on Friday.  We first took him to the vet when he was 6 months old becuse we were concerned. I came home with some MEGA expensive drugs and have been trying to get him stabalised and comfortable so havn't had much craft time as I'm also getting ready for another week in England.  Thank goodness we have house sitters as we could not put Toby in the kennels. I did think a spot of stamping and colouring in might cheer me up today so after hoovering the spiders out of the spare room I sat down and managed the card above inspired by my feathered friend below and a couple of other unfinished bits.  I would like to enter Less is More: Week 21 Sketch , MAWTT 104-clean-and-simple, Ladybugs crafts - Christmas in June, Clear it out - keeping it simple,
Pile it on - Going round in circles

I used: Penny Black stamps, Promarkers, cricut, papermania cardstock, embossing board, black stickles, glossy accents on the wine glasses.

Hey ho, I'm off to collect the eggs and feed the chickens and Fleur the sheep/lawn mower we are pet sitting for this week while our neighbours are away. Chickens will be my next compulsion... :-)

  2. Lovely card and a great use for this particular stamp from the set - I too have this set and it's under used too!

    Hope Toby gets some relief now he's had a diagnosis
