MIM - MILKCOFFEE- AND A FAIRY



Hello Everyone...

Hope you had or still having a great weekend...I've been dog sitting this weekend and a few days last week...comes to an end this afternoon, then onto boy sitting and their brain damaged dog for 3 days..'Harrys' doggy brother was fed slug bait...or he helped himself [not sure] and was so ill, they thought he would die overnight...but he hung on...everything inside was failing and shutting down...just so awful and sad to watch...but he did pull through, although he is sightly brain damaged and has to be taught all the puppy things again [he and Harry are 9yrs old....there is no recognition to anyone...no tail wagging...nothing...he just lies in his kennel looking so confused...but we are told with plenty of TLC he could slowly come back...he has lost his 'HAPPY'...that special little thing that dogs have....very sad.

So onto brighter things....today is MAKE IT MONDAY TIME  and we have a fabulous sponsor...

And the DT were very lucky to get some images to play with...



This is Fairy Tiffany  ..

Coloured with pencils and a few copics in her wings...all glittered up so she sparkles...



There she is...very pretty Fairy...and I'm not going to tell you the trouble I had...just look at the placement of the butterflies and the big flower to know that things dont always work out the way you wanted and to rearrange things can sometimes make things worse..lol..and then you have to hide stuff!!


And the side view...now the day was stinking hot and sunny, and no matter where I took the photos the light was wrong...this was taken under a tree, on a brick edging and I was squatting down hence the funny angle...but I knew!!.. if I got down on the ground there was the possibility I would not get up..so we have funny shots this week.

For my pick this week I went for this little CAS beauty from #130 MAY 



A flower of brads...so cute, and so effective..Thanks for sharing with us May..

So thats it from me today...another stinker...but no cleaning work..only doing my personnal care clients while I have the boys..

Thanks for stopping by, hope to see you over at MIM...

Luv CHRISSYxx

Hi Chrissy

Oh, how sad, the poor dog. Must be hard for the family to see him like that knowing how he was before. :o(

Your card how ever is very bright and happy. I absolutely love this image. Those sparkly wings are amazing!

Fantastic POTW from you. What a great way to use brads.

Gorgeous fairy, so sparkly!!! Love that lace and all those pretty embellies too, Fab CAS card as your POTW, the brads are very effective.
Sounds like a full time job with the dog but hopefully he will get some of his "Happy" back.
We had a dog that got into a packet of snail bait,when one of our boys was very little he fed it to him thinking it was dog food. He was gone when I found him and I was pretty stressed about that plus freaking out if Jason (about 2 years old) had eaten any as well. That's what little kids do, eat the dog food!!! Luckily he hadn't but I was so upset about the dog, it wouldn't have been a pleasant death.
I still think of him and its been 33 years now
Hugs,
Sandy
