Snowflake Sweeney

Today's creation is for Digital Delights & our 'anything goes' challenge. Yeah you read it right anything goes, so no excuses not to enter.

You must all know by now about my super cute & cuddly pet skunky butt Nico, well along with all the other fabulous images Wendy draws, she draws some super cute skunks. I just had to have this cutie & make a card with him. I think I'm gonna send this one to our vets. They aren't exotic pet vets, but they always go above & beyond to help when I need advice or Nico needs them, so a card with a skunk on & a box of celebrations is in order me thinks!


My favourite picture of me & my boy xx

Here's my creation....
I decided to make a gate fold, as I love them & hadn't made one for ages.
