Pet Park

They are
our hearts, our souls, and true members of our
families. They make us laugh, they make us cry,
and they try our patience. And even if we
believe them to be perfect in every way, we must
be honest with ourselves and accept that they
are, in fact, not perfect. They love to play
games, they love to sneak treats, and they seem
to enjoy seeing us wonder what is on their
minds. Sounds a little like kids, doesn’t it!
But in reality it is our beloved cats and
dogs. For some reason we do tend to let them
get away with a lot more than we would let our
own children get away with.
I am going
to be calling on some special friends to help me
write this article. It only seems appropriate
that “Fluffy” and “Rover” give us their special
point of view of the layouts and such
highlighted in our Pet Park.

notes:
I had planned to use stitching for the two
circles, but felt like the page needed a
little extra color, so I decided to use blue
and yellow paper instead to give it a little
pop of color.

Cool Cat by Michelle Johnson.
Digital Supplies: Papers, swirls,
button and alpha from Playtime for the Guys
by Carina Gardner (Two Peas), Ric Rac and
layered template by Bella Gypsy (Elemental
Scraps), Font: Pea Missy.
Journaling: Sam always tries to hide
in the fridge.
Fluffy’s Take: I can see why Sam
likes this fridge! Any small space is just
perfect for crawling into and spying out
of! Love the way the human artist
highlighted the wonderful photo and didn’t
overwhelm it with embellishments!

notes:
My English cocker spaniel, Scoobie, was
literally raised next to the dishwasher as a
puppy. It seems almost impossible to turn
her away from the bad habit of sneaking into
the machine to find if there is anything
edible in there.
Try acrylic paint on embossed chipboard
cardstock and rub the raised part with
sanding paper. That makes a surface both
rough and gentle at the same time.

Boutique, Paint: Ranger, Ink:
Clearsnap,
Font: Supermarket, Sketch:
kreativ-med-papir.blogspot.com, Other:

Journaling: "and happy with it"
Rover's Point of View: Man, what I
wouldn’t give to be in Scoobie’s place! Can
you imagine? How delightful that the humans
in her life don’t mind her sneaking a little
something every once in a while! Don’t you
think those little doggie feet are just
adorable!

Design
notes:
I took my Thickers and dyed them with
green ink. I printed various decorations and
swirls, onto a transparency, cut it out, and
used it on my layout. I love to do this,
and it's so cost-effective way. I also
enjoy the fact that no matter what the
subject, I can print something to match my
layout.

Memories, Kaiser Krafts, Alpha Stickers:

transparency, and hand doodling.
Journaling: Jaguar. You are so cute
& funny and adorable. But you are Also 100%
trouble with a Capital "T"! If there is
mischief that you CAN get into, then you
WILL get into it.
Fluffy’s Take: Oh, I can just see
the mischief in those eyes, can’t you? And,
yet, at the same time they beg
forgiveness! I’m liking all the layers,
definitely highlights all those layers of
wonderfulness in any cat!
