Zoey . . . So Worth the Wait!

Oh, oh, oh . . . I'm crazy excited!! I'm getting a new "baby"!! Her name is Zoey . . . and I wanted to make a special "Thank You" card for Janet, the most fabulous (and patient) breeder! Well, I asked Mo Manning if she could create a new image with a little Yorkie . . . and SHE DID! Thanks Mo! You ROCK!!

This card features one of Mo Manning's newest digi images called "Pumpkin Spice Yorkie"! This sweetie is available HERE in Mo's online store! And the cool thing is, for one price, you get TWO images - this one, and one with a plain cup! Talk about versatile!!
