Winnie All Wrapped Up!

This week over at Willow Sketchie we have another fab sketch for you to follow, which you will find here! My darling hubby helped me with this card, my brain just wouldn't work! It just kept shouting nope not gonna do it lol & it really is such a fab sketch!

So Nige messed with my Ecraft program, while the printer was printing off the pink snowflake paper & he put it through my Ecraft & the three panels were cut out!! I would never, ever done that I just would have put three panels on top! So he gave me a totally different look than I would have!
Thanks gorgeous xx
