Paper Smooches Designer Drafts and CAS(E) This Sketch #9

I am posting with a heavy heart today, grieving for the victims and their families in Connecticut.  It is a hard thing to understand, and even harder to explain to my children.  I spent much of today crafting in the company of my oldest daughter, seeming to need to be at her side all day.  My youngest is off this weekend at a soccer tournament with her father, and they seem to be checking in more frequently than usual.  

I do have some happy cards to share today.  The first one is for this week's Paper Smooches Designer Drafts challenge.   Here is the sketch:

I had to break out my newest PS set, Woofers and Tweeters.  These dogs sure are cute. I've got the smallest dog in the pack precariously perched atop a pile of hearts to give his best pal a bone. 

Now, on to this week's CAS(E) this Sketch CTS#9.

As soon as I saw this sketch, I knew I wanted to use this hanging snowflake stamp from PTI Friendship Jar Holiday Fillers.  The scale was too small, so I masked a bit to get the hanging parts longer, and I used a smaller panel for my focal point.
