GAME STOP WEDNESDAY

                    It's time for a little contest.

But first - an excerpt from my calendar for the month of June. -- Calendar called Shih Tzu puppies from BrownTrout Publishers.

“Did you know … that having a close relationship with your puppy may not only make you happier and more active, but may also provide direct health benefits?  Studies have shown that petting a dog can have the effect of reducing blood pressure even hours after the initial action, and that pet owners who suffer from serious illnesses (e.g. heart attacks) survive longer than those who do not own pets. One possible explanation is that heart attack victims are more motivated to recover because they know that their dogs depend on them.

And now for the contest -- --

     Below is a picture showing the pieces of something I am making.

               If you can guess what I am making, or come the closest,

           you win a machine embroidered bookmark, similar to these.

HERE'S THE PICTURE:

Materials include:

Pink and white striped fabric

White fabric

Velcro

Elastic

6 White buttons

and Red Felt

Try to be as specific as possible.  If more than one of you guess correctly, we will draw the winner from a hat.
Please convo your answer to either: www.StylinDogsBoutique.etsy.com or www.DianaDesignsNY.etsy.com
Or email me at StylinDogsBtq@aol.com

Anyone is welcome to play. You have until midnight PST Wed, June 6th.
Good luck.  :-)

Winner will be announced here, Thursday morning.  Thanks for playing.

And the answer is - a Candy Striper dress! It will have an apron with a red cross and a hat.
There were a number of correct guesses so I put your names in a cup, and John (aka Babalou) picked - and the winner is --- (it is first thing in the morning and my voice sounds like a bullfrog. )

And the Winner of the November Pet Photo contest is...
