To date, I have never made my DH a card. Well, that's all changed now.
What I am most excited about is that I've used several things from wonderful RAKs I received from Susan, aka One4Joy and Helen, aka MissHelenStamps.
Molly, was our most beloved golden retriever. She lived with us 12 years until that overwhelmingly sad day when it was time for us to put her down
We're "inside" dog lovers over here in NC ... we're lovers of st bernards (but not the slime on the walls and ceilings), Boxers and Goldens. I've had goldens running around my home for 26 years!
Anyway, in loving memory of the most wonderful dog ever created by God, I've used the following from One4Joy and MissHelenStamps:
Copper 'family' plate
picture frame
corner buttons from Helen
Ladies, thank you for the gifts that enabled me to create a card I know my DH will love.

Anne, I love this card of Molly. The colors and the bow is so pretty. I like how you put the frame on the card. This is such a nice way to remember all of the wonderful memories you had with Molly.

Oh Anne, what a beautifully framed image of your lovely Molly! Is this the doggie in your avatar? I love my pets unconditionally. My Rosco dog sits by me while I view all these wonderful cards nightly, waiting patiently for me to get up and go to bed. You did an amazing job here. Your DH will surely cherish this one and only card. I sure would! TFS :0)
