Love of Pets

It's Wednesday so that means it's time for a new Whimsy Stamps Inspirations challenge! This isn't my team's week to host the challenge but I am playing along as I love the theme... 'Love of Pets'. As lots of you know I have a big black cat called Ben, he was 10 on Saturday and he is my first baby ;-)

Today is the first day of school for my youngest son, Thomas. I have scheduled this post as I am probably huddled somewhere crying into my tea about where has the time gone...lol x

Update: I haven't cried and here is a pic of the boys on their way to school...


So onto my card I have to share today, I used a gorgeous image designed by Crissy Armstrong called Frog Friend and is available to purchase here. I have teamed the image with some of my all time fave papers by Echo Park and embellished simply with some buttons and raffia...

Did you notice my gorgeous new watermark? Puchased from Whimsy Stamps and designed by the lovely Ann Vento. Thank you Ann, I love it x

Don't forget you don't have to use a Whimsy image to enter the challenge (it would be great if you did though!) The prize this week is...

Don't forget also...As well as a random winner being chosen each challenge one lucky player who has used a Whimsy Stamps image (rubber or digital) will have the opportunity to be a Guest Designer for a future challenge. If you have used a Whimsy Image and would like to be a future guest please add GDT to your name when entering. The Guest Designer will be able to choose a digi stamp of their choice from the store to create their guest card too!

Remember anyone can enter our challenge and we don't mind you combining with other challenges either! All we ask is that you add a link in your blog post to tell your friends you entered the Whimsy Stamps Inspirations Challenge.
