Neil's birthday card

It's son Neil's birthday on 16 April and I rarely make adult male cards. He has a labradoodle and I saw this picture which is the image of her so I decided this year he could have one of mom's creations!



All the papers I have used were downloaded from Monti's Pixel Playground Cat & Dog scrap kit.
Nesties were used for all the circles and ovals including the bone "buttons".
Image was found on Google images.
Cardstock, buttons and fibres from stash.

I would like to enter this card in my first ever challenge, Moving Along With The Times Challenge #41 - Easel card.

I would also like to enter it in the following challenges
C.R.A.F.T. - Buttons challenge
Pile It On - Easel card
One Stitch at a Time - Challenge #7 - Anything Goes
Cute Card Thursday - Challenge #107 - Mono Mania
Pollycraft - Challenge #38 - Anything Goes
Paper Cutz - Challenge 36 - 3 patterned papers
Stamp Scrap and Doodle Saturdays - Week 35 - Birthdays
