I had several choices here for this month's challenge. Reading books, my morning cup of coffee, walking around craft stores or antique shops, strolling around the park in Autumn, taking the day off from work & heading into New York city simply because it's there--are just a few of the things that are simple pleasures for me. However, as I was thinking about this challenge my Toby came right up to me, gave me one of his famous wet kisses on my nose & proceeded to climb onto my lap which is his favorite 'resting' place.
Right at that moment the decision was made to scrap about the unique bond between man & dog. I'm a lover of all animals--but Toby has been my first dog & he's taught me the powerful lesson of unconditional love. I have to say that there's nothing better than getting a wet kiss on the nose from your loyal companion & the best part is that they kiss you no matter how you look or how you're feeling.
I kept the embellishing of the chippie simple. I just covered the chipboard with embossing ink & then spread a bit of Star Dust transparent embossing powder by Stampendous. This process adds just the right amount of 'bling' to any chipboard piece.
