Need a Little Hug?

The Challenge on Hambo Stamps Challenge this week is to use the oh so cute digi image: "BAILEY HUG" - digital image by Hambo Stamps AND to have stripes somewhere on the layout.  So I decided to get a little GRUNGY.  Of course, to make matters easier, I decided to go to SWEET STAMPIN' and see what was the sketch of the week.  What a perfect combination!  The striped paper has great oranges/browns/greens in it.  I teamed it up it a doggie paw print background paper and a mat that is covered in dog bone treats with sayings.  I accented the edges with some zigzag and straight stitch rubons.  I show you a close-up of Bailey so that you can see a new method for me, putting tiny little hash marks to make it look like fur.
I'm entering this in these challenges:
