Thinking About You Voodoo Humor card



Yes, this is a humor only card.  I have not taken the pins and pooked them into any of the dolls.  I have a very good friend that gave us a voodoo doll paper pad at work as a joke.  She unfortunately moved out of town so this card is returning the favor and I'm sending it to her to make her smile.

Dog Hair card



As every pet owner knows, there will be hair.  You will vacuum often and use lint brushes but it's worth it.  This card was a special order for a good customer of mine on Etsy.  Black dogs are not easy to color since it's hard to do and make features distinct.  I printed out the custom saying they requested.
