In the dog house

What?No, I'm not in the dog house hee hee... 

I thought I'd share the project I've prepared for my group at Thursday Club to make tonight. Many of you often ask me to share but I don't always remember to photograph my prototype, and normally at the end of the evening someone gets to take mine home with them. 

So here's the dog house


Actually they won't be all dogs... I came up with the idea for them to make the little houses first and thought how much they would love something to put in them ... I trawled the web and finally came up with a bunch of finger puppets on Ebay that were inexpensive and so cute


...So I bought 30 of these and I know they will love them.


After cutting 30 of those houses on the silhouette ( yes, that's why I go through so many blades and mats!) I printed some papers and hand cut all the pieces to decorate it. Added some punched flowers and thought it still needed something....


So I digitally created a base and BG to stick the house onto and voila! All done.
It did take me a few full days I hasten to add but seeing their faces tonight will be worth the effort. 

A week or so ago I told you about one of my group who had been through the mill a little and I'm happy to say that a foster home was found for him and he is still able to come to club. He was so happy last week and so were we.

I hope you enjoy your day ... Take care and thanks so much for your visit

This is an amazing creation Ros and those finger puppets are so cute! It takes a very kind person to spend so much time creating the original project and then taking ages to recreate enough materials for the whole group to make one, AND source those puppets to make it extra special. I bet this is going to be one popular session!
Have a good weekend.
Hugs

Well, well. Every time you show us one of your Thursday Club projects I think okay, this must be the best one ever. And then you just do it again! This doggie house must be the cutest thing you ever did with your group! And it seems like more and more work goes into preparing for the sessions. You are truly amazing!
