Today I was inspired by WT388 to use School Tools, and these papers reminded me of new school clothes. Chase, of course, is waiting for his kids to come home from school. This is the first time I have tried the telescoping card design, and I had a blast. It was easier than it looks! Using Holly's Tutorial and Beate's video made it a snap! Thanks girls!
I stamped two backgrounds using Rubbernecker's Kittie Kits and mounted Chase on dimensional foam over the top. The dog image was a gift from my sweet friend "M" (Stamp Muse). Hugs & wags! The sentiment is computer generated and printed on lined school paper and framed using Verve dies.
Be back later to comment! Thanks for looking!

Oh, Pat...this is just the cutest doggie card...and I do love anything with a puppy! I would have to give this card an A+ for the scenery, the fence, and the delightful telescoping design!

Yeah, I can see new clothes!! Love the adorable doggy - he's looking sad since his kidd-os went to school. Love your telescoping circles and the adorable scent. Awesome fence!

Awww I love Chase. Can he come to my house to give me puppy kisses? This is really adorable. I again really like how you did the leaves on the main image. A lovely card Pat.

Shades of new school clothes - I see some new jeans and a spanking new plaid shirt ! And then.....Chase looking at us with those "puppy dog eyes", waiting for the school bus to bring his kids home. Bet ya, the kids are going to get a grand welcome as they jump off the bus to his barking and excitement to see them!
This telescoping card turned out beyond fabulous!!! Your Kittie Kit with the background scene gave an amazing look on the layers and the fence provides a nice country feel, beneath the trees. Another great card, Pat! LYMI

How cute is this puppy waiting for the kids to come home from school. Great telescoping card - I haven't tried this yet as it's a little intimating for me. I love the jean paper and the fence.
