Milo: I'm just gonna lay down here, right beside my brother... chew my bone (well, OK, maybe his too)...

Harley: Can he PLEASE not be near me?????

Had another Christmas card class today... 'tis the season! We played Christmas music and had a great afternoon. I've posted a couple of the cards we made in a previous post, but here are 2 that I just did up this morning after being totally inspired on my morning look at SCS.

Totally CASE'd this card, using the faux metal technique that I recently learned about but hadn't yet tried... what a great effect!


And then, I totally fell in love with this beautiful card... there are so many examples posted on SCS using this Season of Friendship set, which is a relatively new addition to my collection!

at the dog park...

Kelli brought her camera to the park today so she got a couple of pics of me and M... this is about the best one as he isn't really into looking at the camera!


and a couple of us with our boys (who are both interested in more important things!)...


*** I know I may seem like a 'bad mom,' bringing just M. to the park, but I swear I hear an audible sigh (of relief!) when we leave H. in peace every now and then!

Found this on Cathy's site... HA!

some cards...

from this past weekend's Stamp - A - Stack...

I just love this Holy Triptych set - it makes creating elegant cards so easy! I CASEd this card from SCS, and used some of my most hoarded Wintergreen DSP from last Christmas...


A simple card to showcase the 5 petal flower punch...

... using some of the yummy new striped grosgrain ribbon from the current mini!


And, what blog post would be complete without a little show of 'brotherly love'...

... yes, Milo is actually crammed into Harley's crate with Harley in it... he's trying to steal the bone. Brave? Maybe. Foolish? Certainly! Silly and somewhat stubborn? That's Milo!

1 sick Tara + 1 traveling Shawn = 1 bored Milo...

I've been sick all week, and pretty much haven't left the house except for a couple of Dr. visits... Shawn's been gone - livin' it up in Castlegar... When you have a 9 month old puppy, this might not be ideal for a few reasons:

1.See, Harley would be perfectly content to laze around in the warm house, chew his bone, and just generally lie around.

2.
Milo, however, is a different story! Can't you just hear Harley: "Hey Lady... um, HELLO?!?!?"

3.
And then, Mr. Innocent... "What? I'm just snuggling my brother..."

4.
Poor Harley... this is on his pillow in the living room, but Milo has, in fact, followed him into his crate and sat / layed right on top of him! Poor Harley - I can hear him sighing & wishing for his peaceful old life back!
