Two Bits

My mom had a Dachshund for many years.  His name was Two Bits. Every time I see a Dachsy, I think of him.  I love the images in the Paper and Such set "Patriots and Friends".  I'm a sucker for dogs and cats anyway, and especially puppies and kittens.  My daughter just added two more puppies to her family of  5 kids, 5 chickens, and a dog. (and no, she does not have acreage.) She brought the puppies over to my house when I took care of her children and two more of my grandchildren one day last week.  Quite a houseful of activity that day.  I grabbed a few shots of the kids and puppies.  Here are a couple:

Aren't they just so cute?  (puppies and girls !)
Okay, enough of the grandma bit.  Here is my card.

I paper pieced the puppy onto some vanilla CS just distressing the edges a bit.  The striped paper is from an autumn stack from years ago and the ribbon is SU which I have had about 10 years.  Base is Kraft CS by Kraft Outlet..
