I've decided to make an ol' favourite but long forgotten (by me!) - the Joy Fold card. There's the link to a written and video tutorial over at Splitcoaststampers. All elements on this card is from the Work & Play 10: Country Life CD Collection. I used some ribbon from my stash to keep the card closed.
This digi is also available to download separately. She called Egg Collecting! :) I coloured her with Faber-Castell Polychromos. To ground the image I added a some grass, fussy cut it and adhered the scene to the background paper. Then I tucked the tag behind the roof of the chicken coop.
Here's a look inside. There's room for a short message.

Last week, after 14 years of loyal and devoted companionship, André has joined his sister, Rosie. They were inseparable in life and they are together again at last. It has been a rough week and we will be saying our final farewell to André today at the Associação de São Francisco de Assis in a service dedicated to celebrating his wonderful life and the endless joy he brought to our lives.

Love your card and love her boots! Love the colour:) It reminds me of the time my neighbour friend and I wanted to make realistic mud pies so we took most of the eggs and mixed them with the mud...I was sent home. I think that is wonderful that there is a service for Andre. He and Rosie are barking and having a great time up in heaven.
