DELIGHTFUL THURSDAY DT



Hello  Everyone...

Well, well, well...sitting here eating my pixie caramel [not sick of them after all]...and watching the 11th re-run of "Friends"and my mind snapped into gear...I HAVE NOT POSTED MY POST!!

So welcome to Delightful Thursday and my DT card for Digital Delights 

This week I chose this puppy to play with, and he is a delight..

Meet Speckles ....



This little dog is too cute and so much fun to colour...

Lots of "Marianne Creatables trees" and a big spotty moon peeking through the forest. using scraps..
Papers are from "Rosies Studio - Basics"

Then the Marianne fences to stop this wee fellow from wandering off...although someone has left the gate open..again!!..





I coloured Speckles with Faber Castell pencils...glittered the heart on his collar and glossy accents on his eyes..added some dog bones buttons from my stash....




And the side view..

The emphasis on the "Again"..is this card has gone to a young boy who was forever leaving the gate open...his dog wandered off and it took 3 days to find him...fortunately a nice couple had him [and were going to keep him mind you..] and after a bit of..ummm..choice words from Dad the dog was returned to the boy..

Mum and Dad have done there own sentiment for inside the card...a list of rules!

So all's well that ends well...

Another amazing ‘scene’, Chrissy! Your creations are always so inspirational! I have to say that those button ‘bones’ look a bit too realistic! My dogs would have them off the card in 2 seconds flat!! :) xx

So cute! Love your idea of extending the scene over the edge of the card base. I think the boy is going to get the message:)

Sorry I haven't been by lately. Have been out of town.

This is so precious! I love those trees and the fence - and yes, we can relate to the gate being left open too! The grandchildren seem to have a knack for that. Cute image and an adorable card!
