I thought I'd be funny today and use the same sentiment as yesterday's card, but this time with dogs. I couldn't figure out how to have the CAS and TLC work together (dogs and mandalas, ummm, maybe not).
I don't have much in the way of dog stamps. I've never seen a stamp that I like enough to buy and I think it's because I wouldn't want a particular breed. This tissue paper came with my Joggles.com order wrapped in it. I cut out three dogs that reminded me of dogs I've loved: the middle dog is Barney, the dog I got for my 27th birthday. We were told Barney was a sheltie mix; nah, I don't think so. He looked like a collie/St. Bernard/Golden. He was gorgeous, had a big ruff on his neck like a collie but was almost as big as a St. Bernard. A naughty puppy but an awesome adult dog, great with my children. The right side dog is Satchel or Atticus, my sister's dogs. Satchel is no longer with us, but Atticus is a two year old Weimaraner. He is a darling dog, long legged and a bit of a goof. The left side dog is Ziva, my brother's Boxer rescue. She doesn't have a long tail as most Boxers have a docked tail. Ziva is a diva but if she decides you are her 'person', you are good to go. I'm good to go and when I visited her in Michigan, we were joined at the hip. I've had many dogs in my life, starting with Taffy, Trixie, Lady, Bucky, Barney, Tuk, Sitka, Turk, Gully, Drezlyn, Elsa, Lucy, Ziva, Scout, Satchel and Atticus. Barney was the only one that owned me. I miss having a dog.

Love your story and love your card! I would miss having a dog too. Walking my dog is the only thing that gets me out of the house some days. :-) Love how you played even though you don't own many dog stamps. We have standard poodles and I lament that most stamps are caricatures with silly hair cuts and not like our dogs at all. Your napkin doggies are terrific!
