Bow Wow, Woof Woof, Ruff, Ruff....!

I've been working on a cute little photo book with dog themed pages. I used many different cutting files from Treasure Box Designs for the focal point on the pages. It took me about 5 days off and on to plan the page layouts, cut the piece's, chalk and assemble them. But I very happy with how it turned out.
This is the front cover. There are a total of 17 pages including front and back covers and room for 16 photos. Not all of the pages are shown in this post.
I used a red, white and black color theme along with the browns of the dogs and a few other touches of color here and there.
You can click on any of the photos to enlarge them for closer details :)
The pages are 8 x 8 and I included a photo mat on each page. The photos slip in easily behind the ribbons.
The elements are hand chalked and some of them are popped up for added dimension.
Here are a few closeups of some of the dogs. Aren't they cute?
Each page is enclosed in a protective vinyl sleeve to keep them clean from fingerprints.
The funny part to me, about making this book is that I don't own a dog and I haven't for many years. (I think it would be cute to hold little boys photos too ) I love it, but since I have no dog, I will be selling this photo book. If you are interested in purchasing it, please contact me at karel2006@comcast.net.
 I am asking $35 + postage, to the United States only. I can email other photos on request.
The paper piecing's used to create this book are all from Treasure Box Designs. Be sure and check out the rest of the adorable files they have to offer.
