It's going to be a terrific Thursday! Right!?! Definitely!
Texas got rain and lots of it yesterday! Some flooding, but much needed rain. Bastrop...you might remember me talking about Bastrop last September. That's where I was born and raised and last September they had a big fire there - burned nearly 1600 homes, Bastrop State Park, etc. Well, they had to close school yesterday, because of flooding. My sister said they had 5 inches of rain in 3 hours! That's a lot of rain.
Today, Little Miss Muffet is releasing several new images. A couple more Sugar 'n Spice Dolls, a couple Little Misses, and one animal friend.
If you caught my post the other day, you know that our dog, Annie, had 9 puppies last weekend. I think I'll put a picture in the side bar and update it regularly and title it "Watch Them Grow". What do you think? They are super cute.
Well, in honor of the new additions to our family, I decided to use the new animal friend, Hooch! When I hear that name I think of the movie Turner & Hooch, but this Hooch is soooooo much cuter!!I colored Hooch with my Copic marker, cut him out with my Labels 2 Nestie and sponged around the edges with Tim Holtz Distressed Ink in tea dye while the image was still in the die. Hooch was super fun and easy to color.
I also used my white gelly roll pen to add some extra highlights to his ribbon and nose.
I also used my brand spanking new bottle cap die cut and stamp set that I ordered from Whimsy Stamps. I used Tim Holtz Distressed Ink in vintage photo for the stamp.
Go visit Little Miss Muffet Stamps to grab all the new releases you can handle!

Great texture you've created in the fur...looks fantastic and I love those Basic Grey papers! I'm so glad y'all got some well needed rain and hopefully will help ease the drought and lower the fire danger!
