thankful.

In April, my brother's dog got suddenly ill and they had to make the really difficult decision to put him to sleep. My brother called me at work and we discussed Vanilla's illness and what had to be done. I was heartbroken.

I rescued Vanilla (and his brother Chocolate, who has since passed) back in 2013. Vanilla is the absolute sweetest boy I have ever met in my life. I considered him my dog, even though I rescued him for my brother and he lived with my brother.

So I wanted to do a sort of memorial page for him and I chose a bunch of selfies my brother had taken of the two of them in his car. I used the Midnight collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio because I really liked the grey/blue for this page.

This globe cut file is fresh off of today's newsletter for Spiegelmom Scraps. I used the I Love You More sequin mix to make some shaker pockets with the globe.

Thanks for looking!
