Catherines' animals remind me of Anne Geddes photography. Who doesn't fall in love with stunning pics of babies or fur babies?! Thanks for the suggestion. I love the wild turkey most of all, but in the end I went with PIGS.
The art work (pigs lounging on silk velvet chaise and the sentiment) are from a fabulous clip art book called Memories of a Lifetime Animals. I printed out the pigs twice, cut and popped the second pair on the sofa. The sentiment is also printed straight from the computer. I added a scalloped edge from MME polka dot paper. The card base is PTI vintage cream with an ABC script bg inked in TH di antique linen . The striped brown, pink, and cream DP is inknown. It was cuttled with the diamond ef. The "silk purse" brad is from K&CO, sitting on a scrap of brown sheer ribbon.
Thanks for taking a peak, and comments are always greatly appreciated!

Love it. Great sentiment and very appropriate for me today--my DH and I were just discussing our problem children wondering if we are the only ones whose children didn't turn out perfect. You made my day!
