Good morning peeps,
Yesterday we brought home another new addition to our family, an 8 week old liver & white Springer Spaniel who hubby has named Jester. It has taken me a very long time to agree to having another puppy dog after losing my beloved Frodo & so far so good, the only real downside is he's not properly house trained so I have one eye on him, one on typing my post & a bottle of disinfectant to hand lol. Dude our old boy took to him straight away, Suggs (cat) just seems to want to beat the puppy up & chase him & the other cats thankfully don't seem bothered by his arrival.
I did have a few strong words with young Jester last night & lay the law down as he grabbed one of my Copic sketch pens which is a big no no & is the first thing that young man needs to learn lol.
Here he is with Jodie
Today I am guest designing for
and this weeks challenge is

Aww what can I say just love your card Mandy so striking and vibrant, love the colour combo it's especially good for boys! Your Pup is adorable. I remember first having Nikita home and forever watching her in case she moved and quickly popped her on the paper! My best friends have now become bleach and neutradol! Hope you have fun with little Jester!

Aaaww . . . what a sweet, sweet new baby! Whenever I see a little puppy, I get that urge to get another one to join our family. However, we already have 3 furry kids, so we are going to do without.

Fabulous card - perfect for my grandson. Adorable puppy - such a cute little thing. Hope the Safari is working out for you - it's not perfect but it works better for me than the others.

ReplyDeleteWOW JESTER is adorable I had a liver and white Springer Spaniel called Cassie she was thirteen when she passed away . I had so much fun with her ,we lived by the beach and she would run for miles. You will have so much fun with Jester . What a super addition to your family Mandy Hugs Elaine
Your card is almost as adorable as the new puppy! How could you ever get mad at that sweet face? It sounds like you will have your hands full for awhile training him, but I'm sure you will get lots of love in return.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Springer pup, Mandy! Your card is awesome too! Doesn't matter which side of the pond you're on, ya gotta love the red, white and blue! LOL
ReplyDeleteFabby card Mandi, love it
