Super Heroes

Y'all already know I love our little Rambo, but I actually love all animals!  Something that's dear to my heart are animal shelters and rescue groups -  and all the people involved in them - from the donors, volunteers, and foster parents, to all the wonderful people that adopt the animals.  They truly ARE heroes and it's time to give them all a big thank you!   They give each one of the animals so much love and care and there's so many animals that need that.   Jim always tells me that if it were possible I'd take in every four footed creature I could find.  I probably would if I just had  room for all of them but since Rambo's the complete boss in this house, I'm not real sure how that would go over.   

Last week Connie mentioned a new (to me) challenge called Sending Paw Prints.  Of course I had to scoot over there (and enter my card) and see what it was all about.   I can't think of a nicer cause and a better place to send cards I make when they involve animals and thank you's.   Please go over to Karen's challenge blog and check it out.....and bless her heart for doing this.

Simple card.........Newton's Nook stamp and sentiment along with a Memory Box die. 

Thanks for stopping by...............

This is so super cute, Lynn. And I could guess that you are an animal lover. This time when we visited India on our annual holiday, one of my close friends took Aleeza and me to a dog shelter and Aleeza loved it as she, like you, is an animal lover. Infact it was one of the highlights of our trip. Feeling happy to see you happy,

This is the perfect for this cause. I am going to try to get one made this week for Sending Paw Prints organization also. These people are true heroes and your little guy has his hero outfit on and the heart just represents the love these heroes need to know exists for them.
I love it and so will some wonderful volunteer. Wishing you a good day.

I'm sure Rambo posed for this card, Lynn! He looks so dapper in his Super Hero outfit! Rescue animals need all the super heroes they can get!

Oh Lynn! This card is absolutely adorable! I love the blue paper you used for your Super Hero Rambo! I am a big animal lover too! I hadn't heard about the Sending Paw Prints challenge! But I am heading right over there next! Love seeing you posting again!!

Such a sweet card, Lynn, and for such an awesome cause! I love animals so much! Thank goodness for shelters! I got my first kitty from a shelter, and my two boys are from SPCA, who had foster "parents" taking care of my boys until they could be adopted. So this is such a wonderful idea! I enjoy making cards for charity too!

MiamiKel said...

Sweet Rambo in his cape - how cute!! Your post resonates with me, as we are VERY much in love with animal rescue and my daughter works with a dog rescue organization as well, so we are always careful to help where and when we can. The need is SO great. What a terrific cause - coincidentally, I have a dog card on my blog at 12 midnight, will have to check out the card request. Hugs, Lynn!

Lynn, this is wonderful the embossed bold blue background makes for a striking card design with the adorable little dog. I feel the same way about all animals.

Karen Howard said...

Hi Lynn,

OMG, your card is SUPER great!!! Love the bright blue paper and super dog with his red cape is absolutely the best! Thank you so much for supporting our furry friends and playing along in the challenge at Sending Paw Prints! You're the best friend ever!!! Hugs, Karen

MaryH said...

Super Rambo! Now this is just the cutest dog image I've seen in a while, and I can bet it looks very like the Head Dog at your house. It looks just great against the blue embossing too! Good to see you're getting back into the creative mode, and hope you are able to jump back in full force real soon. Our DD does the Greyhound Rescue, and she's an animal lover as well. TFS & Hugs
