So glad to see you today! Some exciting news to share.
Dude Time Doodles is releasing a few new images today. If you've arrived at my blog from Ruth, then you are on the correct path.
The Dudeville community is welcoming Axel Lumberjack, Archie Heartful, and Syd Sadback. You will be introduced to all of them as you make your way around our circle hop. There is no beginning and ending. So, no matter where you get on, as long as you go full circle, you'll see everything. Be certain you leave the Dudettes and our one Dude some extra love, because you never know who the MYSTERY HOST(ESS) will be.
I am pleased to introduce you to Syd Sadback. It's normal for me to color any football player image in blue and gold, because those are the colors of my oldest son's college team.
I colored Syd with my Copic markers and cut out the image with my Labels 22 Nestie. Then I matted the image with some dark blue cardstock. All of the papers are from my stash. The button, star eyelets and twine are also from my stash.
I think we can all imagine why Syd is crying. And that's why I chose the sentiment I did. This is football! One of the only times you can see grown men cry. The sentiment was made using my new Whimsy Stamps Shapeology bottle cap die cut and stamp, but the sentiment was computer generated.From here you'll need to visit Kevin, our resident Dude!
I'm entering this project into the following challenges:
Tuesday Trio: sketch
The Spotted Chick: That's Krafty Thursday #57
Now for some unrelated cuteness.
Our dog Annie had her puppies last Saturday. When we arrived home from a long day at the gun shop, she had 5 of them. All cleaned up and raring to go.
The next day we were greeted with 4 more!! So, 9 puppies total. They like to make one big pile of puppies and when they start whining, Annie takes her nose to the middle of the pile and starts pushing one puppy at a time to nurse. She's a great mama.
Thanks for stopping by and make sure you visit often, because I'll be sharing pics of the puppies as they grow up.
Later chicas!!









Love how you colored Syd. Those puppies are so cute!
