DON'T WORRY -- BE HAPPY

Uploaded: June 22, 2012

Description

Jack Happy (the grandson of BP fame MR. HAPPY) visited us for the week in Australia, he came by email.
Graham took this shot of the romantic twosome just after Jack proposed to Princess Annie pledging his love with the Happy family crown.
Will this romance blossom? Will Jack marry? Will Mr. Happy accept Annie into the family or will Jack carry on the family tradition breaking hearts just like his GrandPaw?
Have a great day. Pat and Graham

Love is in the air for Annie! What a precious photo you were able to get of them, Pat! Definitely one of my faves! #10196001

No wonder he is simply GLOWING...He did not have to sit on a plane for 25 hours!

But I am so confused...Who is JACK? And who is Princess Annie? #10196557

Thankyou for your kind words everyone, much appreciated!

Hi there Michelle, Jack Happy is the grandson of Mr. Happy, it's a long story, John Connolly sent Jack by email, I thought he was the original Mr. Happy until Jack Haskins posted a picture.

So I christened my Mr. Happy "Jack Happy" after Jack and made up a story he had fallen in love with my dog, "Princess Annie".

Jack has sent Mr. Happy (the original) by mail to somebody.

If Princess Annie knows what is good for her she will snatch up Jack Happy and stop him from breaking hearts around the world!!

Beautifully put together. I think they'd make a wonderful pair. Looks like you had fun doing this one. Mr Happy (& his G'son) sure spread the happiness around. Very good work=^..^= #10207953

Lol...I see a reeeeeal series of love adventures beginning here!!!

OH WHAT A "HAPPY" FAMILY THEY MIGHT END UP BEING!

I'd better not tell Fangy. He is still heart broken that the love of his life (and you know which frog-dog I am referring to) didn't marry him and move to Canada....

This is a superb portrait of which should be done in oils and hung in the Palace immediately following the royal wedding!

Love Little Sis xxxxxxxx

LOL little sister, don't tell Fangy, the love of his life and he will be united one day, I hope it is a very long time!

Ha, I want to take a course in Painting in Photoshop CS6, can't find one as yet. I just did a 6 weeks course and finished it in two weeks because it was easy. It was supposed to be an advanced course which is why I took it!

Sis, have you checked out youtubes on this? Here is one...maybe t can get you started?

I googled: youtube digital painting CS5 and a bunch came up including this one. :)

I hope I have helped you. :) xo

Little Sister xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

P.S. Someday I will whisper what you said in Fangy's ear while he sleeps. xo #10216853

OH OH OH, how you have HELPED me little sister.

This tutorial is excellent! I will get to work on it as soon as we have fed the dogs, it s 5.30pm here and I have just had a bath, feel lovely and warm as it is winter over here!

I use the Oil Paint Filter that is mentioned in this tutorial on dog hair as it thickens it up and looks longer, but I have never done it this way, looks beautiful, I need to find an image!

Thank you Little Sister, gee it is so nice you still have Fangy.

Oxoxoxoxoxoxoxxxxxx #10217836

Laura E. Swan level-classic July 07, 2012

Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I helped! I helped!!!

GOOD! And it is almost 2am here. I will go to sleep smiling knowing I made you happy and sent you something to help you.

Fangy came to me 15 minutes ago wanting me to get up and go to bed so I guess I'd better do this soon. :))))

I love you!

Little Sister :))) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

P.S. Thank you again for the beautiful card. I think the memorial for my Dad will be on the 20th. #10217848

Chris Ebben July 07, 2012

Laura, Fangy tells you when to go to bed!! Just as well he doesn't see Kody telling Tony when to go to bed, too bad if we have visitors... when it's time it's time. I get an extra hour or so on the computer then I get "the bum's rush" & have to go in as well. #10217883
