Puppy Love Collection: Dog Days Mini Album by Jennifer

Hello, Doodlebug fans. Jennifer here and today it's my turn to share my Puppy Love project with you. Last year my family and I welcomed a Bichon Frise puppy into our home and hearts.  Of course, I have taken tons of pictures of him since then and decided to showcase a few of them in this fun mini album.

I started out with a chipboard, 3 ring binder for the main part of the album.  Then I added the chipboard puppy to the front, which was cut using my Silhouette.  The file for the dog can be found here.  I did distort the puppy slightly to accommodate the narrowness of the album.

The dog was then covered with patterned paper and cardstock.  I then stitched around his eye, tummy and on his collar.  For a nice "wet look" on his nose, a little crystal lacquer was applied.

A newspaper from the Odds and Ends package was added to some rolled up patterned paper, then placed in the dog's mouth.  A boutique button was used for the tongue.

Mini tags from the collection were attached to the collar with jump rings, and one was embellished with a button and sprinkles.

Tennis balls and treat stickers were then placed on the lower half of the album.

On the inside cover of the album, a tri-fold card was used to hold some journaling.

Here are all the pages inside the album.

........and the reverse side.

I hope you have been inspired to try creating an album for your fur-baby as well.  That's it for me, but be sure to stop by the rest of this week for more Puppy Love inspiration.  Jennifer :)
