Sadly, my son & DIL lost their precious Yorkie "Smokey" over the weekend so I made them a card and dropped it in the mail to help comfort them. I used this adorable image called
Yorkie Post from
Stamp-n-Doodle. The Cool Caribbean panel was embossed with a CB ef, and I added a SB diecut heart done in soft stone card stock from PTI. The sentiment and pawprint images are also from PTI and were done in Pumice Stone distress and Basic Grey ink. The dog bone clip and cream-colored ribbon are both from my stash. Losing a precious pet is never an easy time, and I know they're going to miss that sweet dog for a long time to come.
I'm also entering this into the
September 19th Anything Goes challenge at the Stamp n doodle blog.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by.

That is such a shame, Carol. I am sure your card will give a wee bit of comfort. It's lovely. Pets are truly family.
I'm sorry for their loss! I'm sure your beautiful, heartfelt card will help lift their spirits.
Sweet card! We lost our dog this year so I can really sympathize.
Aw....so sad. This will surely comfort them. We used to have a yorkie too....the sweetest little thing! TFS! Love the colors you used.
Oh Gosh, I can't even image what they are going through right now. If anything will help, it will be this card with that gorgeous face on it. I love the hint of the paw prints on the heart. They will definitely feel the sympathy you have expressed in this card and know that you feel their loss also. Please pass along my heartfelt condolences to them. Yorkies are special "people".
Carol, I'm so sorry about their little dog but know they'll love the card.
It's just beautiful with those colors together and the way you put the image inside the heart! Stunning card!

This is SUCH an adorable card. Love the layout with the angled panel, the GREAT color combo, and that texture. Beautiful!
Carol, I saw your little Yorkie and thought it was great you had made a card with that sweet image. Then, I read your post and it made me so sad for your son and DIL. I can just imagine their heartache. I sure hope this precious card gives them a ray of sunshine.

So sorry for their loss, Carol. The card is so sweet and precious just like I'm sure their Smokey was.
