This is my card for this month's My Favorite Things Guest Designer Challenge. We were to make a card with black trimmed in black with black embellishments. This is my story:
1. Ever since the Bones Family moved into the neighborhood, about a dozen of the neighborhood dogs have been trying to get the nerve up to go to the door and ask for bones. They gotta have bones in that house right?
2. You've heard of a double dawg dare? Baxter decided to take his buddies up on a dozen dawg dare! All the dogs have noticed that every now and then the kids in the neighborhood dress up, knock on people's doors and get treats!! It's gotta work right?
3. Mom is so embarrassed about Baxter's bad behavior that she made Johnny try to get him back home. Baxter out weighs Johnny and he simply can't budge him.
4. Push harder Johnny!!
The moral of the story?
1. Dogs will do anything for a bone!
2. Moms will do anything to avoid being embarrassed in front of the neighbors.
3. Kids will do anything their moms tell them to!

Cindy, Cindy...A Twisted Sistah you are! And you make great cards too! I love the name plate and the dog costume. You nut! And I think the Cuttlebug Co. should pay you for all the ideas you give for using their product- love the roof! Beautiful card!

Ok, whenever I read anything that says "Push" in the title I immediately think of childbirth......so "Push harder Johnny" was a REALLY interesting card in my head, lol!!!!
Not that this isn't a great card, really it's fantastic! Best of luck!
