Blogger's Challenge: PETS


Lisa let the "cat" out of the bag last week and she was in the "doghouse" for posting a future challenge too early :-)  Did you all catch that? She was just so excited about the PET theme this week she couldn't wait!  

I was equally excited when I saw this theme as I do have a new pet and couldn't wait to scrap a page of her.  She was our (meaning our family) Mother's Day gift LOL!  She's sweet as can be although we have some training we need to work on with her, she's doing much better every day.  Mooch fits right into our life (and we know where she got the name now).

For both my scrapbook page and my card, I used a new set from The{Stamps}of Life called Kids2Love.  This is an adorable set with some fun images to paper piece with.  I also used the Letters2Color set for my title above and kept the rest of the page pretty simple so that the first picture we ever took of her would be the focal point.

The card below I used the Borders4Me set along with the Kids2Love to just give the background a little design without pulling out my designer papers to match it with.  I like how simple it looks and just added a string of twine.


Hope you will join us this week for Blogger's Challenge and show off that PET of ours or one that you have always wanted.  You can link up by copying the URL of your creation into Linky Tools below.

Awww...Mooch is just adorable. (Love that name) - We're thinking of renaming Cricket to Miss "Pee-body" because of her bad habits.

Both your SB Page and the card are just wonderful and so sweet.
