I love this challenge Sher! I used the saying "Three Dog Night" for this pic I took of my girls with dd's dog one night while he was staying with us. I also used the Olive Garden logo from my Graphic Design Challenge for color inspiration. I had a lot of fun with this!

OMGosh Barb, I so love this, and the lime is lovely with the puppies, I LOVE how you did this from beginning to end. Maybe when Scully, Mimi, and Abby are all together again, I'll be able to steal this! Thanks for doing the challenge!!!

I went with the saying-- you are the cats meow

Thanks for the challenge,Sher,

My inspiration was that song by Jim Crocci, "Cat's in the Cradle". That song immediately brought to mind this pic that I took of my cousin's cat while we were visiting her in Ireland. The words are not actually on the LO...hope that is ok.

Hey, your layout, your choice to not add the words if you so choose!! I always count your layout, ALWAYS! And this is stunning, and I see where you got your inspiration from the photo!!! Thanks for doing my challenge!!

I used the phrase "Man's Best Friend" as my title and this sketch was PERFECT for these photos of my sweet boy!

Hey, no bribing the judge!!!! LOL!! You know if it's Jeffrey, I love that dog!!! His personality comes thru to me on all the photos you post, and the REAL saying is Jeffrey is SHER's best friend. . . LOL Thanks for doing the challenge, Jeffrey!!!

Thanks so much for the great idea for this challenge! I used 2 phrases "happy as a clam" and "crocodile tears" to describe my daughter at the age of four. I also used the sketch provided. I had so much fun doing this layout, and it has turned out to be one of my favorites!

HOW VERY clever - especially the "Crocodile tears" which all mothers put up with!! OMG. How funny! I'm loving the layering and the dimension of your layout - and the colors are adorable!! Thanks for playing along!!

Here's my entry! What a fun challenge! I used one of the Treasure Map journal cards for the title: A Whale of A Tale! These are pics from 2001 of DS playing with his whale toy on the balcony one summer day. We don't have a pet so does the whale toy count as an animal LOL? Shiver me timbers LOL! I combined with the Rewind challenge. (May/June Graphic Design - swashes)

I used a quote by Jack Hanna about zoo animals: "Zoo animals are ambassadors for their cousins in the wild." I am combining with the title challenge.
I scraplifted this LO: http://sbing.com/i/gallery2/300891-700.jpg

Is a whale an animal, and does it count? Did you really ask that

(JK) of course, it's quit being a flower a long time ago!!! I love your page!! and how cute is your son playing with it. Oh if only those kind of toys entertained them as much now!! LOL Thanks for doing my challenge!

I have NEVER heard this quote before, but what a wonderful saying, and I would expect nothing less of Jack Hanna. Thanks so much - and I do mean this !!! - for sharing this. You also did a wonderful job with the page layouts, mastering a two page layout that I so badly suck at!! Thanks again for doing my challenge!

This was such a fun twist on the pet challenge. I really liked it! I chose the phrase "A fish out of water" as my title.

I love how you used so many things to make the layout beachy that you'd never consider on a beach layout. The wire waves are my favorite! Thanks for doing my challenge.
