A poodle punch card

For awhile, punch art cards were all over the blogs.   I think they are ever so clever, so I wanted to be clever too!  I have a wonderful Standard Poodle named Simon, and so in his honor, I created a punch art poodle! Since Simon is a male, I proably should have used a blue bow and backdrop, but...well I like red better!  I really enjoyed making this card and I do feel rather clever in how it turned out!
Isn't he just adorable!  It's hard to see in the picture, but I ran the whisper white through the big shot with the swirly texture plate.   It makes his fur look curly!  Makes me smile.  Simon actually never has had a poodle haircut, so he's not so elegant looking.  He would never put up with a bow, either. People ask me all the time if he's a labradoodle.  "Nope," I say, "He's just Simon."  That says it all in my mind. :-)

Here's the real Simon with his friend Ada, the Boxer puppy. 

Too cute, huh?  They make me laugh when they play.  Simon is six, and Ada isn't even a year yet, but they have the BEST time.  Hard not to smile when watching their antics.

Thanks for popping in today.
