- 7" x 5" white card blank, short side opening
- backing card and toppers by Hunkydory, in a 'free' kit given out at a show up in Coventry a few years ago
- selected the piece of the backing card I wanted to use, trimmed it and glued it in place
- popped out the pre-cut 'toppers', snipped of the little white bits at the edges and then glued them in place
Has to be the fastest card ever!
It wasn't until Tuesday evening that we saw signs of Dudley's old spirit returning - five whole days after his experience at the so-called 'groomer's' - he played a game of 'zoomies' around the lounge and it was a delight to see his eyes sparkling once again. He's still very wary about having his collar put on, which he needs as well as his harness when he goes out so it can't be avoided. Time and patience with a load of love should help - we hope. Our next step is for me to take him out for a car ride in his doggie booster box for a little excursion - the last time he was in that, he returned home curled up into a very sad and shaking little ball. Perhaps I'll take his beloved 'Stinky Monkey' Mark 4 along for the ride to keep him company :)
Thank you all for your support - the Playground Pup sends woofs!
What little boy doesn't love spaceships so this is a perfect card. He will love those astronauts and outer space. I'm so glad Dudley is starting to come around. How traumatic for him.
ReplyDeleteA lovely card Di and I'm sure Luke will think so too. It's good to hear that Dudley is returning to his normal, cheeky self.

ReplyDeleteCute card. I remember when my brothers had spaceship pajamas and we all thought those were so cool.[Bunny]`
ReplyDeleteBrilliant card Di, love the images and the colours.

Kit or no it is certainly a card just right for a young lad. Hope D's car trip goes OK - he must have been seriously traumatised by that %$**&!* so-called groomer.
ReplyDeleteA fun card Di, and loving woofs to Dudly

Good luck with the car journey.
Hugs, Sarn xxx
What a great card for Luke and am sure he will love it Di, and am glad that Dudley is recovering from the trauma, and all your love and care will put it right. x

I stopped in as I was hoping for a Dudley update and there it is! I'm so glad poor Dudley is starting to return to his old self. What a nightmare! Your card is adorable! Love the outer space theme!
ReplyDeleteThis is an adorable card for your neighbor Di, very fun for a little boy. Love that the doggy is in the space ship with the boy, so cute. Must be an adorable collection kit! Oh I'm so happy to hear that Dudley is returning to himself some. It is going to talk time and lots of love and reassurance from you and Len. I would definitely take his little stinky monkey with him, it will probably give him some security. Although the poor fella is going to have some anxiety for a while until that dreaded memory is erased from his memory. Big hugs to Dudley and Parnips and of course to you Di! Brenda
ReplyDeleteA fast but very effective card! Love the topper with its holographic border and the space background. I think this card is just perfect for a boy!
ReplyDeletePoor, poor Dudley! How shocked he has been! Hopefully he need only a bit of time to returning a happy, fun and curious pup. I think that having with him his "friend" the Stinky Monkey for a car trip will be positive and then he will forget that bad adventure. Fingers crossed. Hope as well you will find a good groomer, very kind and gentle with doggies :/
Hugs and a lot of cuddles to Dudley
Perfect card for a little boy, so colourful and fun! I am glad Dudley is more himself now. I have just read your post about the groomer, how awful! Poor little chap. I bet you were absolutely fuming! Take care. Hugs xxxxxxx
