Christmas Puppy

Its time for me to share with you my latest creation for {PIN}spiration  this is going to be our last challenge of 2017!! You will find our last photo here or at the end of my post!

This card was made for a friend to give to her son & daughter-in-law..obviously lol. She wanted to pay for it, but I suggested she made a donation to the local Pets At Home's animal collection (they work in conjunction with our local animal rescue centre, to collect pet food, blankets etc for strays over winter) So she rings me & says not only did she donate £20 she ended up adopting a kitten....WOW....so shocked....the things that happen through crafting!!
