Puppy Love Fabric collage

I think I have puppies on the brain, I just could'nt help myself. Had to make another Fabric collage. I think this would be really cute in a kids room. It's an 8x10 on an art board ready to hang.

I listed it in my new ZIBBET Shop at www.zibbet.com/prairiedreams/shop

Nice and cold here in Packerland.

Almost the deep freeze!!!!

Many Smiles to all,
