I colored up this Eat Cake Graphics flying pig last week with my mom and I showed her how to mask images and make clouds.
I wasn't sure what I was going to do for a sentiment so I ended up collaborating. I first grabbed My Favorite Things: "Hell has officially frozen over" stamp but needed something to correlate with the piggy. That's when I grabbed my Lawn Fawn alphabets and just made my own thing up.
I used a Sizzix cloud die, some new washi tape and what's a card without bling? Not sure who I'll send this card too. I guess I'll just have to wait until something unbelievable happens! OR - if someone wants to buy it - that's fine too :)
Here's the sketch:
I was at my local park on Wednesday with my three dogs when Buddy disappeared from me for a short bit. He does this often but the call of "Cookies!!" gets him running back. Well, he was near a swampy area and I heard a big splash. Knowing he's not a swimmer - I called for him and when he came to me he was gushing blood from his ear!!! YIKES! I saw he had a huge gash. I quickly leashed him up, called the vet and brought him in. I think he got bit by a snapping turtle! So, he had to spend most of the day at the vet and this is my poor sad boy. He'll be sportin' this for two weeks!!
He's so sad :(
Thanks for your visit!

Bless his heart, hope you gave him 2 cookies, spoil him good while he's sick..........love the card, it's so cute!!!
Your card is to funny, someone will love it when the right occasion comes up I am sure and poor Buddy, he does look very pitiful. Thankfully it was only his ear that got bitten though!
Maria your post had me in fits of laughter. First of all your card is giggly cute!! Glad Buddy is okay and sorry to hear he will be a "cone head" for a bit.
Poor Buddy! Oh my goodness that card is great! I needed that laugh today. Love the way you combined the sentiments, the go together perfectly here.
Poor Buddy!!! He looks so sad and maybe he'll think twice now about wrestling with a turtle!! Give him an extra hug for me!
