This week's MMTPT challenge was to make a card involving Boscoe the baseball playing dog and his new team he is trying to put together (imagine the Bad News Bears movie being played by dogs because that it the storyline here). Actually, for most of us, the real story with this challenge was Andrew, a sweet 10 year old who has multiple brain tumors and loves his baseball team. If you have some time, this is a worthy card drive! See details here:
Paper: SU! chocolate chip, riding hood red, creamy caramel. early expresso, and Karen Foster Designs dp
Ink: chocolate chip for sponging
Accessories: ribbon, twine, stickers (Karen Foster), SU! corner ticket punch and word window punch and oval punch, CM small, medium circle punches, hole punch (2 different sizes)

Nancy, this is just SOOOO CUTE!!! What a great idea to do a punched puppy. I didn't even think of that when I didn't have a dog stamp. I really love the spot on his eye!! What a great card to send to Andrew! He should be getting some of them already. I can only imagine how fun that is for him!
