Hugs and Cuddles

Hi there everyone.  It's Saturday again, and another rainy day...but it could be worse.  At least the winds have died down, and there's no snow.  When we think of fall, we think of colourful leaves, but they do lose some of their appeal when they are all wet and skies are grey!   I'm still hoping for a couple of nice days where I can get out and do a clean up in my gardens.


My grandson, Lucas, had a birthday last week, and I thought this little guy was just the ticket.  This was a freebie image from Crissy Armstrong titled 'Best Buds', which is now available for purchase.  Such a sweet image...full of hugs and cuddles!

My colouring was done with copics and coloured pencils, but the shirt has been paper pieced.  It just had to be plaid, don't you think?  Puppy is the same colouring as his dog Farley, though Farley is much much bigger.

Really liked this DP from Basic Grey, perfect colours for a fall card.  Used the Spellbinders Labels Twelve die to cut out the image, and metal brads to attach it.

Hope you enjoyed your visit, and you will have a lovely weekend.  Don't do anything I wouldn't do! lol
