Ad inspired card

This is the picture today on 365 cards - for us to make an 'ad inspired' card (yes, I know, I've missed several of the 365 challenges since John's been poorly and here I am doing today's!):

As soon as I saw the gorgeous labrador, of course, I was reminded of Josey and so I reached for the stamp that always make me think of her (for new readers of my blog: Josey is John's ex-guide dog). I also followed the patchwork theme with paper by SEI softy baby quilt - a few other little bits and pieces ...

The Lili of the valley challenge 27 this week is 'pink green blue', so this card does nicely for that as well.

    Aw Hazel, must still be sad to think of Josey. Lovely that you could use the stamp again, great colour scheme.

    I'm not at all a doggie person (give me cats any day!) but I make an exception for some breeds, labs being one (and they can be trained so well for a purpose they'll get my vote for that vital task anyway)

    You must still miss Josey - she and her predecessors played such an important part in your lives.

    Glad to see you feel up to some crafting and have managed to find some time to do it. All the best to you and John.
