I'm a day late, my apologies! It's pathetic because my card was actually finished a few days early 😞
Our lovely Kelly was the hostess for both teams this month and came up with a really great theme: "Gotcha Day" This is to honor the one year anniversary of her adopting a Siamese cat who needed nursing, physically, emotionally and mentally. The theme is to recognize all rescued animals on the day that their humans adopted them. Pretty cool!
Here's my card:
The adorable kitten and chicks is from CC Designs. The image is colored with Spectrum Noir and Stampin' Up markers.
Kelly included designer papers from S.E.I Crafts, "Madeleine Collection". I used Card Layer 2 Dies by Jaded Blossom to create the background panels.
Enamel dots, ribbon and button are from Kelly's stash.
This posting would not be complete without including a photo of my own little rescue guy, Dobby:
Dobby is a 7 year old Havanese that I adopted when he was 4. Unfortunately his timid little soul was subjected to some harsh human behavior and he can be so scared.
But he has come a long way and has finally started trusting people that I introduce to him!! A Havanese is a perfect breed for quiet living, they rarely bark and love their sleepy days on the sofa.
They are non-shedders and have hair, not fur, which is great for those with allergies.
I'm so lucky to have this little guy in my life. Dobby is a devoted friend and a loving companion.
Thank you for such a wonderful theme, Kelly! It's great that we can raise the awareness of adopting pets and giving them find a Forever Home!
