Sweet P got a puppy for Christmas and he has his first birthday coming up this fall! She likes that they share the same birthday month, so I can't let his go by without a card. He's a berne-labra-doodle, so he's a big boy! All black with just a little white strip down his chest.
I was a lucky winner at Colorado Craft Company this summer. I picked their Anita Jeram ~ Stay Pawsitive set because the pup reminded me of Crosby. Oh yeah, that's his name! She named him after her favorite hockey player! I think he'll fit right in at The Paper Players this week. They're looking for four legged friends.
He's stamped with black ink, then again with Versa Mark and clear embossed. I was holding my breath that he would turn out colored all black... and he did! Next came a little ink blending followed by the flowers (IO) and sentiment. I added a polka dot panel cut with MFT's Wonky Rectangles. The butterflies were last minute additions due to an ink smudge!
Okay, off this goes to the gallery and off I go to the grocery store!

Super sweet card to celebrate Crosby's 1st birthday. Your grandaughter is going to LOVE this, Lisa! :) xx
How cute is this! Adorable name for the grand dog too :)
Very sweet and cute. Congrats on the win at CCC.
Heat embossing the stamp kept the detaills on this darling pup, Lisa. You made him a wonderful place to be patient and wait in the garden until he goes for a walk.
crosby sounds totally adorable, lisa and his birthday card is totally adorable, too!
I love this little pooch from Colorado craft, he also reminds me of my two Goldens :)
Such an adorable card, Crosby is having fun in the flower bed :)
Oh, Lisa, he is adorable! Sidney would be so honored to know he has a namesake, lol!
What a darling garden you've created for him - so pretty!
Happy birthday to Crosby AND Miss P!

Ohhh, your sweet pup is adorable nestled in the flowers and all framed up in polka dots! I'll bet the real Crosby is a big happy fluff ball, the kind I love best. That's quite a triple combo -- all good breeds! Happy birthday to Crosby and your Sweet P!
Oh, this is such a cute image....and he does look patient, waiting among the flowers! Sweet little scene! The butterflies are a perfect embellishment!
Thanks for playing with our theme challenge this week at the Paper Players!
This is totally adorable, Lisa! And how sweet and thoughtful of you to make Crosby a birthday card! I bet Sweet P will be thrilled!!! And as someone who grew up in Pittsburgh I come from a long line of Pittsburgh Penguin fans, so I think it's absolutely fantastic that Sweet P named her pup after her favorite hockey player :) Super cute!!!
What a special card for a special event! Love the puppy and the garden he is hiding in! So sweet.....
What a great card, Lisa - and oh, that pink nose! Thank you for sharing it with us at this week's challenge at The Paper Players.
Oh my Lisa, your four-legged friend is adorable and I'm sure Miss Sweet P will love it! The sentiment made me smile too - my brother has a cava-poo and these words could not be further from the truth as far as he's concerned, but we love him regardless! Thanks for playing along with my theme over at The Paper Players this week!
Sweet card for Sweet P, and Happy Birthday to Crosby!
What a kind and thoughtful thing to do. Your pup is absolutely adorable.
Love his name and what a wonderful card to celebrate his birthday month! And Sweet Pea has a birthday too! Even more reason to celebrate. Such a fun card and I love the sentiment. I need to hang that in my craft room as a reminder some days. Haha! Thanks so much for joining us this week over at The Paper Players!
Sooooo much cuteness! The puppy and the sentiment are perfect !!!
This is such a cute card, Lisa! Those dogs are beautiful. I love that you made a card for his birthday!
