Birthday Wishes Brother...

Hello everyone :o)

You might have noticed I haven't been around much!  I'm finding the whole puppy thing pretty exhausting really... have managed to make about a third of a card since we got him and starting to get a teeny bit frustrated now!  Other people seem to carry on as normal when they get a puppy, but I can't make a thing while he barks at full volume in the background.  We're all completely besotted with him though!

So here's another card I made before Christmas, for an order.

The dragon was a Silhouette file cut on the Cameo, sentiment stamps are Stampin' Up and the papers are First Edition textured ones.

And here's a couple of sleepy Chester photos...

 A few of you have asked if he's a Cocker Spaniel, he's actually a Cockapoo, but not an especially curly one.  He'll probably look quite different when his adult coat comes through.  He's now 9wks old and knows sit, stay (not for very long) and paw, he's getting the hang of toilet training when he feels like it (he prefers the rug and isn't keen on the cold!), and he sleeps through the night after a few minutes of extreme barking... every time I see the neighbours I apologise, although they claim it isn't bothering them.  I'm sure it will if it carries on much longer though!

It was my birthday last week and I had some lovely cards from some equally lovely blogging friends - thank you!  I'm getting a set of Inktense pencils with my birthday money, but there's no rush to order them seen as it'll probably be weeks before they get used properly... oh, and I've already ordered a copic carrying case, in the hope that I can do a bit of colouring downstairs... well you never know eh?

Thanks for popping in, hope you have a lovely evening :o)
