Our Christmas Dog

My boys love sending out photo cards to their friends at Christmas and our border collie "Robbie" is always the star on the card. I just thought I would share the pictures taken this year, as they do make you smile and give you the feel good factor for the day. He sat so patiently like a real Hollywood Dog Star. He should really be in the movies, he is so obedient, he sat patiently for 15 minutes getting these shots taken, although he did get little biccie treats for doing so!!
Oh it's a dogs life!...
Merry Christmas

Themed parties are always fun to work on and we were very pleased at the Magenta Ink Studio to be asked to design some very fabulous, fun 50th birthday invitations with a rock n roll twist for an Elvis fan.
