It's never easy to lose a Pet.




I've been busy, busy....gearing up for next week and the MFT May teasers.  I can't wait for you to see what's coming.  MFT TEASERS begin on Wednesday...if you can believe that. I did sneak in a little card for Jen's Deconstructing sketch 48 this week. I hate missing her sketches because I  LOVE working with them. Plus, it called for a little fishtail flag and I am over the moon for the MFT Fishtail Flag STax Die-namics. 




My in-laws lost their beloved dog this week. Murphy was a 14yr. old yellow lab and my FIL's best friend.  It's heart breaking to see your loved ones hurt.  So I made them a card to know that we are thinking about them and that we are sad, too.

 I can remember when they got that dog.  Tim and I hadn't been dating all that long, and I was so excited to get to play with a puppy. He lived a LONG and happy life.  I find comfort knowing that my Boomer dog (we lost him back in Oct.) now has a friend to romp around with up in heaven. 



The Clearly Sentimental about Pets stamp set was a great pick for this card. 

Since the sketch had a little rounded tab peaking out from the main image panel, I tucked in one of the OVAL  TAB DIE-NAMICS.  

I also added a fun embellishment thanks to the PET CHARMS DIE-NAMICS.
