Just catching up on some of this week's challenges, this is for TLC162, paper tole. I took the picture at an angle hoping you could see the dimensionalized toilet paper, but I don't think that idea worked. Trust me when I tell you that most of the toilet paper is popped up on dimensionals--both rolls, the bit going in front of the puppy and the bit on top of her head.
Not terribly long after we got my little girl-dog Sadie, I walked down the hallway to find her going to town with the toilet paper in the guest bathroom. The funny thing is, she must have figured she was doing something wrong because she stopped and looked guilty for a minute, and then she obviously decided it was worth it to play with the TP and went right back to it! I dug up the pictures and posted them on my blog if you'd like to see her in action: http://snapdragonchristy.blogspot.co...s-my-girl.html
The inside of the card is a Whipper Snapper sentiment that says, "Trouble always has a way of finding me." That's my girl...except Sadie is a black Lab. For this one, I colored her in with a More Mustard watercolor wonder crayon, and shaded with Pumpkin Pie and a bit of Chocolate Chip. The toilet paper is lightly shaded with a Tempting Turquoise WWC to match Cool Caribbean. My camera seems to dislike Cool Caribbean, it never photographs right...

Such a cute card!! I just love those whipper snapper images - and this is one I'd love!!! Love your story too... We have a 14 1/2 year old border terrier, and while he did stuff like chew the walls and such, he never got into the toilet paper. Our two sons sure did when they were young though - amazing the amusement a 2 year old can find when just unwinding a roll of toliet paper and flushing it down the toilet!! And - really - who cares? They are having fun!!! Only so many rolls though.....

This is adorable., and I like your idea of the dimentionals. I have this image in my basket at WS... so it's nice to see a card so beautifully done with it
This is so cute! My westie stalks the bathrooms for toilet paper - he is so joyful when he snatches the end and then runs from me - your card is just perfect. Gave me a huge smile this morning! So thanks.
