Tilly Loves Dad!

Tilly the Dog loves her Dad.  Mum does all the usual stuff like sort meals, take for walks, clean up, etc., but somehow or other Dad seems to be special.  She waits patiently in the hall when she knows he's due home.  She always runs to greet him whenever he appears and, best of all, Dad shares his toast with her in the mornings!  And as we are slightly mad in this house, Tilly the Dog is treated somewhat like another child - has her own Christmas stocking, gets birthday presents, etc., and for Fathers' Day tomorrow she will be giving her Dad a card lol!  (Don't worry, the offspring are also giving Dad things too!)


This was made with some images from the fabulous Mo Manning 'Bronte's Bits' - as I do think Mo has definitely captured 'Tilly' in these drawings!  I've coloured them with promarkers and added 'thought bubbles' (although we have yet to be convinced that Tilly the Dog has any meaningful thoughts apart from "Food" and "Walk").  




The backing paper is from K&Co and I've simply added some faux stitching, some red dew drops and a sentiment from the computer! Quite a CAS card really - but then Tilly is quite a simple dog lol! 
Hope you like it! 
  

Back soon,

  4. This is awesome Kim, we treated our cats in exactly the same way. Sadly the cards have stopped from them as we no longer have them. I continued it still the first year after we lost them but hubby got very upset.

    Have a good weekend.
