Challenge YOUrself #57 - "Gotcha!"

It's time for this month's challenge from the Challenge YOUrself Blog.  This month - we challenge you to create a layout - that is PET THEMED - and of course - be sure to include YOU in one of the photos!

For anyone that knows me - you already know that this is not a very hard challenge for me - as I have 2 Portuguese Water Dogs, Maggie and Tino - who make me laugh every day!  

The challenge was finding a photo with me and one of them in it!   

I decided to use one from our Tino's "Gotcha" Day!

Here is my layout for your inspiration:

This guy entered our lives at full speed, and now, 4 years later - he is still a busy boy!  Some nights we wonder how he is still standing!? LOL!!  Well Portuguese Water Dogs are working dogs, and they are very smart - so we make sure he gets lots of exercise and play time!

Here are some close ups for you:

Loving all the embellishments, colors and textures!
This BoBunny Mama Razzi Collection is one of my favorites!

I'm a FAN of Washi Tape and Nuvo Crystal Dots!

This sweet boy's full name is Valentino - and he is such a LOVE!
His registered name is Turnabout is Fair Play.  He comes from an amazing friend and breeder in Connecticut.  Tino is also the proud daddy of 2 litters of beautiful PWD's who continue to carry on the standard and sweet temperament of this wonderful breed.
WE LOVE TINO!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you find time to play along with us this month at the Challenge YOUrself Blog! Head on over to the Blog for lots more inspiration, Challenge Rules and Prize info too!

 I can't wait to see your Pet Layouts!
