Waiting for Christmas!

Hello all and I hope you've had a good weekend? The usual sort of weekend here, comings and goings, laundry (yuck!), cooking and general housekeeping! Tilly the Dog was feeling a bit unwell yesterday, obviously had tummy aches and kept pacing around the house - she must have walked miles by teatime lol!  But thankfully she had a good night's sleep and seems back to her normal cheeky self today. Considering the fact that she acts like a vacuum cleaner sometimes and has a very nasty habit of picking up and eating all sorts of nasty bits and pieces, it's not surprising that she gets the occasional tummy ache!  I sometimes wonder why I faff about buying all this holistic, high quality food if she's just going to hoover up rubbish!

Anyway, on the theme of animals I thought I'd share this card with you today


Apologies for the poor lighting on this one - now that the days are very short I must get myself organised and get photos done in the morning! 
The sweet image is from LOTV and I've coloured it with copics and promarkers, with a little added glamour dust! 


The papers are from LOTV, with some kraft card and coredinations card that's sanded back a little. The gingham ribbon is from Joanna Sheen and the gold baubles and stocking charm are from stash.  I've added some red dewdrops too, with some pompom trim and hessian ribbon. 


Hope you like it! 
Before I go I thought I'd share a quick pic of our Grumpy Poppy with you - she's "chillin' out" on the sofa next to me as I write this and my daughter's just taken this pic of her! 


My pets are so badly treated and live such a deprived life..... NOT! Lol!  
Have a good week! 
Back soon,
Kim x

    I bet Tilly was jealous that you didn't color that pup to match her. :-) I can't get the picture of her walking along "hoovering" up things out of my mind. LOL Too funny. Your card is fantastic. Fabby coloring and the pretty gingham bow and that charm are icing on the cake. Hugs!

    What a lovely card Kim, great image and love the embellishments that go so perfectly. Suzy is the hoover in our house, knowing what we know now she should have been called Dyson!! xx
