Faux Tag Spread

In a previous Cocoa Daisy project, I created a tag using the October Glow Creative Ki t paper to serve as a bookmark. I loved the idea so much that I decided to use it as a template throughout the spread. By tracing around it and then shading in the edges, I was able to mimic the look of layered paper and give my pages extra depth without the bulk. It creates a dimensional effect that makes the tags look like they’re tucked right into my notebook. To keep that “layered paper” look going, I added strips of washi tape from the Planner Kit to the top and bottom of each 'tag'  Washi is one of my favorite ways to bring in more texture without overwhelming the page.

Dogs. 

I've never been a fan of dogs.  I tried for years to put off getting  a dog because my hubby wanted one for the "kids" (for himself-hunting). Now we have two. One points out the birds, the other one fetches. They're team players.

The dogs are slowly adjusting to life with a little one around but one in particular is having a rough time. Every time she is around Luke she sniffs him up and down. At first I thought she was checking him out but now I'm convinced it's because of all the protein liquids he's spills on "himself" (and me).


I'm sure they will make great protectors of Luke as they are of the older boys.  I've startled the dogs in the middle of the night and they immediately went to protective mode but then realized it was me (thankfully).


Until I can manage a baby, stroller, no snow and two dogs these guys will have to wait for a walk.  In the mean time they can hang out with us!
