Pretty simple layout...created a pocket by matching the designs on the paper, folding over an edge along 3 sides and attaching it with red line tape..
For the title I pulled out the corrugated letters and used acrylic paint on some of the letters to emphasize the primary color scheme: black white & kraft. Green , from the grass in the pics, became the accent color.

Let me say again how much I love using the pages out of the journaling books - this time it was the pet journal. I used (2) pages so that I could display the journaling on each side. I backed the pages with Olive Sugar and used circles cut out of the Chopped Parsley as pull tabs.

Cute layout - not so cute story: We were getting ready to leave the house one morning when I noticed something was all over the walls...and it was getting worse. Then I realized it was coming from the tip of Sulu's tail - blood was spurting out with every single wag! After a trip to the vet and a quick (and expensive) surgery, we determined that somehow, the dog had severely abraded the tip of his tail and removed the skin! We tried to bandage it and give it time to heal...do you know how hard it is to bandage a dog's tail - and to keep that bandage on?!?!? After a very stressful and unsuccessful couple of weeks, we realized we had no option - surgery to bob the tail! As it turns out, according to the vet, this is not uncommon among dog breeds with strong tails (which is one reason some of them are just bobbed as puppies - it could actually have cost Sulu his life!). They have even given it a name - Happy Tail - because they wag their tails so hard that they actually hurt themselves when it hits something hard.
