Anyway back to crafting. I have been meaning to use this gorgeous stamp from Penny Black for ages as the little spaniel reminds me of my very own Dexter so finally here is my creation. I used the great sketch by Caz over on Cute Card Thursday's Challenge blog which was really fun to use. However, due to the size of the image I had to create another 8x8 card.
These boy's fit into quite a few challenges this week so they will be entered in the following:
