Texture Tuesday

We have a new member of our family....he's so small and cuddly with curly black fur that looks like a wooly bear.  He's just two months old, but so full of life that we couldn't help but fall in love at first sight.  The little man named him Winston.

He cuddles Ellis, a red bulldog stuffed toy, follows Toadie, the tabby, knows that Miss Adventure will tap him on the nose if he gets too cheeky and is ok with Mr. Noodle ignoring his very existence.  He all ready adores his boy and he's a bundle of joy.

And when he grows up...

   he wants to fly on a skateboard. 

The top photo was converted to black with some tweaking and tones added.  A layer of Kim's happyheart texture gave it just the right touch. 




Update:  We had a bit of a scare this afternoon with our new puppy, Winston, but after a quick trip to visit the vet, he was given a few days of antibiotics and a clean bill of health.  Wheewwwwww......

Meet Buster...he lives with my brother and sister-in-law.  His younger brother is a boisterous, Great Pyrenees mix, named Otis said with great gruff zeal. Otis doesn't stay still long enough for me to get a decent photo of him, but that's ok because I think Buster the black Lab is simply grand.
