Although I sent my granddaughter a birthday card before her birthday, I needed to make another small card to attach to her gift. She loves cute critters, and they don't get much cuter than Lawn Fawn. So I pulled out my free birthday gift set, Party Koala, to make. The sentiment is by MFT. Silly me, I didn't realize I had the matching die, so I fussy cut it all by hand.

Now, I don't have a pet koala, but I do have a pet malti-poo, Toby, who just celebrated his 16th birthday. Here is a peek at him, with my husband. Since I'm always behind the camera, this was the closest I can get to a photo with Toby and me. Toby is full of personality and very feisty for such an senior dog. He still chases squirrels in the backyard, jumps up on the couch for a nap, and makes sure we knows he's boss of the house. I'm linking this up to Double Trouble's "Me and your Pawsome Pet" linky.
I did the same thing with a stamp set, fussy-cut and then realizing I had a thin die. Adorable koala and it koala-fied for our challenge. Love the simplicity of your stamped images on the card... fun card. Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble and 2CCC. Toby is living a good life and looks like Dad enjoys his company... adorable and thanks for sharing with Cleo.
