Furry Friends

Oliver and Neil (the shepherd in the top left photo) have really taken to each other although Neil still growls at the cat when he has any kind of food and Oliver only just wants to sniff what Neil has.  On the flip side, Neil has no bones about nosing the cat out of the way to get at Oliver's food bowl.  I keep thinking one day, Oliver will smack him on the nose when Neil does that..............lol!  Gus (the golden retriever in the bottom right photo) is just tolerant of Oliver.  If Oliver had come into our lives several years ago, Gus and he would have been the best of friends.  Old age is creeping up on my Gus and he is getting a bit persnickety in his old age.  They are the subject of this layout:

Since the photos where kind of neutral, I decided to do a black and white layout.  I love black and white layouts and cards.  They can really be so dramatic.  The white background paper is Bazzill Dotted Swiss.  The glitter dot paper is DCWV and the patterned paper is Anna Griffin.  The blue glitter mat paper is American Crafts, the bow is Anna Griffin, the journaling block is a Project Life card, and the bling is Recollections.  The title is from The Paper Studio alphas.

I hope you enjoyed my layout!  Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think. 

 

P.S. Today is my son Jonathan's 27th birthday, who is my youngest child.  I love you punky!  Happy Birthday baby!
