Yapee Christmas - It's a Dogs tale

Good day I am here with a card i made for the challenge at Beccys Place.
Her month long Christmas Challenge is coming to a close and I am happy to say that she has well and truly smashed her entries from last year.
Each day she has been using a letter of the Alphabet as inspiration.
So today I am sharing a card i made with one of her non Christmas images but I have added a Christmas hat to him.
I wonder if he is a Yapee Dog and is that why he is wondering if he is on the naughty or good list. What do you think?

Image is from the set Dogs Tales and is available HERE
coloured with promarkers
Dp from stash
Embossing folder is from a magazine freebie
Fluffy stuff for his hat and some red glitter card to mat the sentiment 
Sentiment is from Christmas Goose set available HERE

Well what do you think is he on the good list or naughty.
Sorry with those puppy eyes I am putting on the good list.
Thanks for popping by call back tomorrow as it is time for a new challenge at Crafty Catz and I am the host.

I am entering this into the following challenge
