Ovaltine Jenkins, Felicia Fancybottom, Ghee Buttersnaps, AKA --> GUS!

A couple weeks ago I found my best friend, Gus! He is a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, my dream dog! He is a sweet, spunky, crazy, fun puppy, with a big attitude! But we all have absolutely fallen in love with him. :) And yes, I named him after Gus on Psych (hence all the different names in the post title). Eventually I plan on having another Corgi named Shawn. And maybe another one named Jules. Who knows! ;)

This was a couple days after we got him, when we got his first collar and tag!

And this was two weeks after we got him. He's already changed so much!

He loves his cousin Sawyer! They almost look like twins!

Smiling in his sleep :)

Oh you know, just a Corgi...

As you know, I recently adopted a Corgi puppy. I've been painting a lot recently and I decided to paint a Corgi. I'm really happy with how it turned out! (I have a picture of the painting by itself, but it is now in a frame and in our living room).

Hardcastle Family Christmas!

Oh my goodness I cannot believe Christmas has come and gone! It was an awesome day. I had so much fun with my family sitting together eating breakfast, opening presents, eating dinner and desert, and just sitting around talking. It was fun! Here are some pictures from Christmas!

Here's a DIY for ya: Journal!

One of my favorite things to do is make mod-podged journals and sketchbooks. I've had lots of people ask me how I do it, so I decided I'll post it on my blog! Here is your very own DIY journal!

What you'll need:

And here's what you do:

 

(When cutting out scrapbook paper, you can cut 

up different pages for variety of design. You can also cut out shapes such as hearts, flowers, stars, and even letters to put on your cover.)

 

It's that simple! 
Now just repeat steps on the other side of the sketchbook or journal, 
or you can just leave it blank.


Now, for this journal, I decided to make tabs on the inside for different cer. It was a little time consuming, but if you decide to do this as well, here's how:

Now that you've done it all, how about a look at the finished product?

And of course.... You just have to thank your buddy! :)
