LAP "DOG"

I was searching through my picture package and came across this lovely photo - my gorgeous Toby, not me.

Not sure when this was taken, but it was obviously during a stint away in the motorhome.
Toby always found a lap to lie on no matter how uncomfortable he was, but he was the very best buddy ever, never questioning, never expecting anything more than companionship and food and always full of love. How lucky we have been to have known him.
Who are you sharing your knee with this week??

THE BEST BUDDY EVER

Tomorrow would have been my own very special Crafting Buddies birthday. He would have been 21 yrs old. I try to make a scrapbook page for each memorable occasion and this one is for his K & Co book.

The photo was one of the last we took of Toby in the motorhome. He is curled up on the pillows in the sunshine.

I used some of that massive stock of flowers I made - only 2 left now.

The swirl stamp is one of Tim's which goes really well with this layout.

Sorry about the picture quality of some of these.

I cut out the pattern from one of the papers and used 3D foam to mount it down the side of the page.
So even though my little pal isn't sat on my knee while I craft, he is in my heart where he will stay forever.

Now, Mr Linky has stopped playing with me so if you leave a comment after you have posted about your crafting buddy this week, I will pop along and link it up for you.

Here is Lindsay's little buddy Thomas, playing with his new craft tool!!!!LOL

WHO'S CRAFTING WITH YOU THIS WEEK?

This is our third week of posts here at Crafting Buddies, and the list of 'little helpers' is so lovely to see. Thank you for joining in. I, for one am thoroughly enjoying all your photos and especially like hearing, first hand, from the fur and feathered participants. Just shows how clever they all are to be able to blog - it took me ages!!!
Well helping me today by sorting the goody bag I got at the Tim Holtz workshop last Thursday, is my little pal GRACE.

Originally, Grace came from Spain so I think she may be a good flamenco dancer. She loves to sit on one of Toby's shelves in the living room, but as you can see, she is having fun playing with my treasures from Tim today.
Who is playing with your craft today. Upload your pictures and let us see.
