Hello my friends and welcome to Day 2 of Gina K. Designs August Inspiration Blog Hop. Today we are featuring 2 stamps sets "Basket Buddies" illustrated by Melanie Muenchinger and "Heartfelt" illustrated by Theresa Momber.

Basket Buddies

Puppy Love Card: I think this image is more than adorable! It reminds me the puppy I got to my niece when she was 6 years old (now she is 21!!) The puppy was a Cocker Spaniel and we named her "Pelusa" (that means fuzz). She was a good company for the family, sadly she passed away last year. Anyway, the darker puppy looks so much like her.
