Magnolia Tilda with Her Puppy Easel Card & Pix of Maddi








Hubby and I recently went to Puerto Vallarta but unfortunately we could not bring our lil fur baby, Maddi, with us so we left her at boarding for the very first time. We were nervous about leaving our girl as we have never done it before but Lorie from Somethin' to Bark About took such fab care of our baby that we had nothing to worry about while we were gone. She updated us daily with emails and photos of our lil girl while we were away. Maddi had so much fun playing with Lorie's dog, Jakki, and all the other dogs that were staying there. I made this thank you for card Lorie and Jakki. These two Magnolia images are perfect for her. I hope she likes the card. Thank you Lorie! You rock! Here are some pix of Maddi at Lorie's home hanging out with Jakki and the other dogs...

    Lori, I found you by way of Magnolia-lious yahoo group. I can't believe I haven't seen any of your cards before now. They are all absolutely beautiful and so creative. You just got yourself a new follower. Also I have a part Shih tzu-part poodle that looks like your little one only my Zoe is gray-black and white. Same little face though.
    I am quite the animal (dog) lover myself.
    I will be back soon to check out your beautiful creations.
