New Puppy


Hello hello!  We had a lovely visit with some cousins from the US this weekend who I haven't seen since I was about 14!  It was wonderful to catch up and share lots of laughs and good food.  I also found some time to spend in the Craft Cave which always makes for a good weekend.  ;)  


A lady at work asked for a new puppy card for a friend and this design works perfectly for the latest CAS-ual Fridays challenge to use 2 circles.  I saw this idea for using two hearts to create a bone shape on someone's blog ages ago and cannot for the life of me remember who it was.  (If it was you let me know so I can give you proper acknowledgment!)
