Some thank you cards.... and Trojan Dogs

So... here is an assortment of thank you cards I made using the Wild Card cartridge from Cricut, Stickles (red or silver), and a Paper Trey Ink diecut/stamp set called Tiny Tags II.  The ink used is Jenni Bowlin... and inside, I used Broken China Distress Ink to just give it some color.  The twine I used was from Paper Trey Ink too.

Amuse-bouche:

Many of you commented about our Michael's allowing Sam in.  Yes, as long as he is in the cart, it is ok.  I know our local Home Depot allows dogs in (regardless of size) as long as they are on a leash.  Sam went into that store as well and rode the big lumber cart... like he was on some sort of parade float. It was quite funny.  Colt isn't allowed in Michaels as he WON'T allow me to put him in the cart and I don't take him into Home Depot because he has a tendency to 'mark' (if you get my drift).  That's all I need, is to pay for $300 worth of redwood planks (haha).

On to the nonsensical business at hand:

SamUL's grandpa is an USC alumnus.  This was Sammy's Christmas gift from grandpa. 

And, not to be left out... Grandpa let Colt pose with his special USC earmuffs  ( WHO NEEDS EAR MUFFS IN SO CAL???  ha ha)   that was given to him by a co-worker of mine.  It was very kind of her to give my father these earmuffs.  He treasures them (that includes letting a dog wear them for a short time).

The things I put my dogs through....
