Skunky Butt!

Hi, & welcome to my tiny spot on the WWW.....I am here today to share with you my latest DT creation for My Time To Craft. Where for the next fortnight the theme is......

DISNEY INSPIRED

if you are joining in with us, please don't break the copyright rules!

Ok so last week I made a card for my little skunky butt for his 6th birthday which is in May. This time around I used a Whimsy Stamps skunky image, that I just love & as Flower is the skunk in Bambi.

I really have got the best inspiration for this challenge!!

Lazy boy, fast asleep in our bed.....to cold for him lol!!

 He was only a baby then, but still sleeps between me & hubby every night 💖🐾

I think he looks so cute with the no lines colouring!

Box For Mom!

Ok, so every year I get my Mom a box of Turkish Delight, ya know the one with talcum powder stuff in. Well I decided after so many years of it being in a boring box, I thought I'd make her a special sweetie box. With a baking sheet lining so she can either add more sweeties or take that out & put something else in there. Thankfully she loved it!! 

I also thought this make would be perfect for my DT make over at 'Not Just Cards' where as always our theme is ATG!
