This is Daisy the spy dog's contact Duke. He is brought a daisy to the Amazon tea party to fit in with the tea potters. He is really here to guard all the tea potters along with Daisy from anacondas, you can't tell it from looking at him but he can be quite vicious with snakes and tea potters flinging stuff. Also, he basically just wants to understand WHAT is going on. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Duke has a lot of friends that were along with him when he was won as a blog candy from Mothermark. They are all from Rubbernecker.
TRUE LIFE CRAZY LADY STORY: So I stamped about 15 (I ruin at least 60% when I try to color them) of these Dalmatian images and I had a stack of cut white paper to do more. My plan was to send cards to Shellapoo after I got them made. In the mean time, I had to do a major cleaning of my office. NOW I can't find them - anywhere... Nope - WHERE ARE THEY - hair being pulled... Oh, now why did I come in here...
Ackkkkkkk!
So the daisy theme and Mothermark aka Cindy reminded me of the blog candy and the dogs and then Michelle, Shellapoo. So, anyway, this card, and hopefully a few more will go to Shellapoo, but the story and inspiration are due to Cindy. I will send another card to the destination today.
Thank you to my Cult Mama, Pat Smethers, for the cool die cut frame behind Duke here.

Such a cute card! Nice story... well, except for the part about losing the cards. LOL Love that sweet doggie, and those fun buttons look great.

Don't ya just hate when that happens. Often it would have taken me less time to just start over than the time I spend looking for something! Love this sweet card, though!

Somehow I feel we've ended up on a puppy farm instead of down the Amazon looking at this cute card. Maybe we even found our way to the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm - is that what Snoopy's birthplace was called??
Darling card, I love it. Hope all your puppies come home soon wagging their tails behind them - it is SO frustrating when you can't find something.

Adorable Brat! Love your sweet image and that fun bg paper. Michelle will giggle with delight to see these! Just wondering...it is better to pull out your hair, or to be slapped bald-headed? LYMI

how adorable is this card w/an image every kid would surely love to receive. I love the design, the colors, the everything. It's all good even though the wheels go round and round..
