The Queen & a DORGI?????

Queen Elizabeth II is well known as an affectionate breeder of Welsh Pembroke Corgi dogs; most of the pups she keeps from litters born to her dogs are female. Her sister Princess Margaret had a male Miniature Long-Haired Dachshund called Pipkin who seemed to love the Corgis in quite a different way from their owner -- a litter of seven Dachsund/Corgi crosses was born to one of the Queen's dogs. However, Elizabeth found them appealing enough to christen the type "Dorgi" and arrange for more to be born. (This is occasionally spelled "Dorgie".)

Photographer Norman Parkinson was apparently bold enough to ask how the short-legged Miniature Dachshund could manage to mate with the comparatively taller Corgi and was told by the Queen, "Oh, it's quite simple. We have a little brick."

The Secretary of the Kennel Club at the time of the portrait conflict is supposed to have remarked, "The Dachshund was evolved to chase badgers down holes and Corgis to round up cattle. If anyone loses a herd of cattle down a badger hole, these are just the dogs to get them out."

Card Kits

I made this card from a kit.... I didn't think I would like it.... but, it turned out really well. The butterfly is the best part... don't know if you can tell from the picture... but it has 3 layers, and then a rhinestone head.... then a brad at the top of the Birthday wishes

These next 4 cards are from a little kit that I bought. I was cleaning up my desk and came across them... they are very simple... but, I am glad that I got them done and ready to use!!

Cute Cards!

These are some cards that I made in my new little craft area!! I cleaned up a corner of my garage, and now I go there to be "creative". I have done it a couple of times now, and I think that I really enjoy it!! I just love these Mary Engelbreit pictures... and I was able to incorporate them into my cards... LOVE IT!!!

Happy New Year!!

Scrap Your Day (for a year)

Challenge for 2011

Well, I have some much deserved time off from work!!! I don't have to go back to work til 2011. So, I was catching up on my blogs, and sorting through some of my emails... and came across this blog entry. I follow this blog pretty regularly. She had a challenge going for last year - but, I didn't participate!!! This year her challenge is every other week she will post a word relating to God. Then our challenge is to go to the Bible and find scriptures that are meaningful to us based on the word posted for that week. She will go through the alphabet 26 words - 26 weeks!!! Then, we can make a scrapbook page/journal entry/card - anything we want. I just thought this might be a great thing to do for the new year!!!!

Great Christmas Present!!

Things to purchase for my pups!!

Didn't realize how long it had been since I last posted!!! I've been making cards, and collecting ALL KINDS of cute doxie pics. I hope to have some more time in the next few weeks.
Here is a picture that I don't EVER want to lose... it is just too cute!!!
