How much is that doggy in the window...........

So here is the one I was telling you my youngest son made, with a little help from Mom. I made the pattern which I will share with you tomorrow as I have to do another one up we used the one I made.

Travis had this idea and a good one it is too! I love how he turned out. He is textured all around. So it looks like his fur is curly.

Travis wanted a different hat for his so I made that for him and the ears. Otherwise he did it pretty much himself, I helped put him together on the face. He run everything except the hat and brim through the sizzix machine with the swirl embossing folder. Oh and the nose and whites of eyes and blacks of eyes are not embossed either.

Isn't he just to darn cute?

Once again supplies you will need:

5 coasters

Close to Cocoa CS, trace around the coasters and make 4 for the coasters. Run them through your sizzix machine with the swirl embossing folder.

Take scraps of brown and do ears and eyelids. Again run thought sizzix with the embossing folder.

White for brim of hat an eyes

Black for eyes and nose.

Garden Green for hat

Ribbon same as the others for measurement.

White Gel Pen

Black Marker for doing mouth.


Follow directions as the others on putting him together. Do face first then add side panels lacing them one panel at a time until you have all 4 of them hooked together.

Add you ears and bow them out some so it looks more real. Add brim on his hat and mount that hat to the top of the coaster of the face. Put the bottom piece in and glue around bottom with Crystal Effects. Let dry and your done.

He was just to cute not to share. And I shared Chris's coaster of the bear so had to the dog for Travis too. Chris also made a Bunny, I can share that one to if you wish. Want to see him too?
We will see what else we can come up with and share them another time soon. Glad you are all liking these so well. We sure are enjoying making them.
Oops almost forgot add the pompom to the top of his hat.
