Thinking of you card for my sweet and very dear-to-my-heart friend, Shirley (wannabcre8tive), who happens to be the best Boxer Mom ever (really, she is!) Please see Shirley's gallery here to read more about her beautiful Boxer babies.
The main image here is from Shirley, and is her dog, Savannah Rose. Shirley won a photo contest, and they made a stamp with her image! How great is that!
This card is in honor of Bridget, Shirley's protector mama dog, who is now over the Rainbow Bridge with Savannah and Jake. Shirley, you and your sweet baby dogs just touch my heart. I know a dog could have no kinder mom than you! I will always remember you 'mama dog' stories with fondness. LYMI
Thanks for looking- now go see Shirley photo albums of her babies!

What a touching tribute. You know, dogs accept you as you are. No expectations other than a pat on the head and a good tummy scratch. Boxers are one of my favorites although, I love a critters. Precious card Pat, ya done good Sista.
