If I had been allowed to make the decision, we would have never adopted our dog Huxley (we already had two dogs so I didn't see a strong need for a third one), but I was outvoted by my hubby and kids, so he's now a loved part of the family. For this layout telling the story of how Huxley came into our lives, I pulled out a sketch I designed for Splitcoast Stampers in 2015, then flipped it upside down to suit my pictures. I used the same base cardstock for both pages, but for some reason it came out different shades when I scanned it.

ReplyDeleteFabulous page of memories, Cheryl! Huxley is adorable. Thank you for sharing with us at Double Trouble #134. (I protested the adoption of a third dog that was abandoned in a trash bag in my mom's front yard but he was a wonderful addition to our family for 12 years.) -- Melanie R.
