Before I get started, I just wanted to give everyone a 'Heads Up' ~ Paper Smooches is having their November DT Blog Hop! If you're interested, head on over there for a chance to win a $25.00 gift card to their online store!
I needed a cute card to put into a ‘Care Package’ for my step-granddaughter, who is a freshman in college, so I used my digi stamp called “Mac and Flowers” from the Digi Stamp Boutique. It’s a little tricky to color fur with Copics, so I ran a search on You Tube, and watched a few videos to get some ideas. I colored everything to look 'furry' except his belly...Hope she likes it! I am entering this card for this week’s challenge at Addicted to CAS. Our code word is ‘Pet’ ~
And, here is a close-up of the sparkle on the flowers...I’m completely addicted to my new Wink of Stella pen ~
I’ll be baking pies for the rest of the day, and may not have time to visit blogland as much as usual. So, I’m sending my best wishes to all of my U.S. friends for a very Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has safe travels and a great time with friends and family!
As a new blogger, one of the things I am so grateful for, is the love and support I have received from everyone who takes the time to stop by my blog to leave a sweet comment...Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!
Until next time...Take care,
Barb

Barb the Lawn Fawn birdie card is exceptionally cute. I am a newbie too, one year in January, and I think the ladies of card blogland are wonderful.
Happy Turkey Day
What a wonderful job of coloring this sweet little puppy and flowers, Barb! And those birds are so sweet! So glad you shared with us at ATCAS!
both cards are absolutely adorable, barb! must be honest and say that my favorite is the first one with all those cute little birdies!
Your cards are beautiful Barb, love the dark background it makes the birds pop! Good luck with the baking.
What 2 fun cards -- I love your bird card, but the "pet" card got my attention! Thanks for joining in with ATCAS!
LOVE both your cards, Barb. They made me smile, so adorable!! Thanks so much for playing along at ATSM and ATCAS xx

Fabulous cards Barb. Both are just so adorable. You've done a great job of colouring the fur!
Two fabulous cards - so cute!!
You can do all styles, Barb! I was just thinking about how I do not own any modeling paste/Gesso for making fancy cards...and here you are! You have the cute branches with modeling paste! Thanks for the inspiration! Great job on coloring the 2nd card! I am thankful for a stamping/blog friend like you and have truly enjoyed your new blog! Happy Thanksgiving to you and family. PS: Dr. John was relieved that you are not telling anything to the Home Depot!!
Two cute cards! Hope you and your family had a fabulous Thanksgiving!
