My Puppy Box with file from Myscrapchick.com

Here is a box that I made usiing Myscrapchick.com files. This is a trinket box. My friend Angel made one of these a while back and yes, I knew I had to make one!! She got it from this website..( http://min-hobbyblogg.blogspot.com/2009/09/tutorial-box-with-4-drawers ) This box was so much fun to make. I put 2 layers instead of one...Hope you like....






Here is the poem that I used:
A Dog's Best Friend
O Lord, don't let me once forget
How I love my trusty pet-
Help me learn to disregard
canine craters in my yard
Show me how to be a buddy
even when my sofa's muddy,
Don't allow my pooch to munch
postal carriers for lunch,
Shield my neighbor's cat from view,
guide my steps around the doo,
Train me not to curse and scowl,
when it's puppy's night to howl,
Grant I shan't awake in fear
with a cold nose in my ear,
Give me patience without end-
Help me be; A DOG'S BEST FRIEND.

Challenge #35 anything but a square card at Sassy Cheryl's

Yes, I have been a slacker....LOL Life seems to get in the way sometimes of scrapping. So, with that said I did Sassy Cheryl's challenge this week and used one of my favorite images.
