Hi everyone!
I hope you're halfway through a great day!
I'll tell you, my husband recently fully retired, we made a move to the middle-of-nowhere in a home that we down-sized and really love, and we are more on the go than EVER! Time to stamp (or post) is getting hard to come by!
I was thrilled to have a chance to pick up this lucky dog from the Cute Critters set from Simon Says Stamp. He's been sitting on my desk for almost a month since I brought out the Copics and colored him. I just love this set of adorable animals and the accessories and dies that come with them because they are so versatile for cute cards just waiting to happen!
I loved making this a spotted doggy. Like our beagle Josie, who sits at my feet. The sentiments that come with the set are cute too, don't you think? The pretty plaid and chevron papers are from My Favorite Things. I added a light sponging of Distress Ink in Twisted Citron on the white panel.
Dogs can be wild things, right? So I'm including this in the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Let's Go Wild.
And yes, I wish I could send a hug to you.
Thanks for spending some time with me today. I always love hearing from you!
Be yourself.
Find delight in your craft.
Make something beautiful!
Oh Cindy, he is so adorable. What a cutie pie! I really love that plaid paper..love the colors. Congratulations on your hubby's retirement. Since I've retired I'm busier now than ever. I don't know how I had time to work. Hugs to you my friend. Thanks for sharing such a cute card today.

This is not the first time I've heard that retirees wonder how in the world they ever got anything done when they were working, since they are always on the go! Enjoy your time together in the middle of nowhere!
Your card is just adorable. I love how you've given this dog spots just like your beagle!
