I am pretty sure you are wondering why this post is entitled College Memories but the card is of a wolf howling at the moon. I went to the University of New Mexico and our mascot is a Lobo (a type of wolf). I always think of my college days when I see a wolf - strange but true.
This week's mission at the Haunted Design House is to Case one of the very talented design team members (HDH131). I used this wolf image from Teri's Delicious Doodles Shop. I added a computer generated sentiment that seemed to go with the image. Irishgreensue sent me the silver swirls and snowflakes in a RAK that arrived just yesterday (thanks Sue), so I placed them on the card. Lastly, I addded a black feather since Teri's card also had one. Here is the link to Teri's card:
Fun card. I am giving it to a friend at work who seriously wants to scream right now (she is having some pretty major life struggles). I know this will make her laugh.

I am enjoying your working with Teri's delicious doodles. I happen to be a fan and I love her scenes. What you did with this is very spectacular. I love the icy look of the wolf's breath. There is a lot of depth in this image and your embellishments are perfect. Love it!

What more can I say sis? You absolutely hold the title for theme related cards. That image is awesome, the sentiment perfect and I love each and every detail you put into this. Yep, including the feather. This is a WOW and I know your co-worker will scream out loud when she sees this one!
