Sparkle N Sprinkle Our Furry Friends Blog Hop

Hi Everyone! Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle Our Furry Friends blog hop! If you have come by way of Shanna's wonderful blog you are in the right place. If not, you might want to start at the beginning at the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog to be eligible for some great prizes! All animals, dog and cats, and insects are 15% off through the end of the month.


These cards were a lot of fun for me to make! I have gotten two indoor cats this year. I have never had any inside pets before and I am really enjoying their antics! I used the stamp set Scratchy 368 for my first two cards. Digger is having fun burying that bone! I loved using the new Mudd Puddles Brownie Bites for the dirt.


I could not resist using this dog who can't wait to lap up that ice cream!



For my third card I used the new Panda's Birthday 465 stampet set. These are so cute and playful!



And lastly I made an easel card using this sweet giraffe, Lofty. My designer friend gave me this safari paper and brads that go so well with him. Thanks so much, Marie!


Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you have enjoyed hopping with us. I am the last designer on the hop, so I am taking you back to Sparkle N Sprinkle. Have a wonderful day!

    Your Digger is so cute. His antics are quite realistic. I couldn't help but giggle. I know a puppy lover who could use a good giggle!
    Thank you for sharing with us.

    Wow April, you really did go wild on these cards. Each one so uniquely different. I think if I were to pick a favorite it would be the first one - hilarious! Love the Mudd Puddles too!

    Digger is too funny! (but not if it is in your yard, right?) Are your indoor kitties young? Do they awaken you at night? Love the "pocket" ice cream cone card! It's perfect for that image, and reminds me of how our beloved pets run to the rescue if food is dropped LOL Thanks for sharing your fabulous cards, April! Each so unique and fun.

    Wow, you've out done yourself! I never seem to think of making shaped cards, so I really like the first two you showcased! The ice cream cone is super cute!

    The ice cream card is so cool! What a fun idea. Your little dog house is adorable too. The "bamboo" on the panda card is fun - my sister had shown me a card using that many years ago and I'd forgotten - great tip! Lofty is regal on his easel card too. Great job

    Lots to see here, April. So many different cards its hard to chose which I like best. These are really fun and unusual. The ice cream cone is adorable, but so is the doggie house. And the pandas are cool too.

    The ice cream cone and doghouse shaped cards are really special. Giraffes are my favorite animals. The pandas look so cuddly.

    There is something so peaceful and calm about the panda bear card. Cute idea to put the dog licking the ice cream on a cone shaped
    card with inserted message.
