MSE challenge " Animals"


Sadie over on MSE chose the challenge this time and  its "Animals", cue Jayne Netly Mayhew CD from Joanna Sheen it took me sooo long to decide which image to use then I noticed the paper on my desk, part of a birthday gift (thanks Marg) and it looked jungley and the colours fitted with this stunning Tiger.    One of the great things about the JS cd's is the choice of printing a whole sheet of different sized images so I used 2 of the largest and decoupaged the tiger. I feathered the furry edges of the top image. I added some wooden buttons striped with PM's and one of the smaller images as an accent. My OH was not impressed with the wobbly edge of the main image but thats how Ms Mayhew drew it so I ain't changeing it:)   I have not put on a sentiment as yet but I think it may be a birthday card or maybe a good luck as in "go get 'em Tiger"
Thanks for looking and please leave a comment as I love to read your views
