Top Hat & Tails

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

At SPA this week we are celebrating the new year by dressing up in top hat and tails!

Here's a couple of postcards I've made for this challenge.
Above is my sample for SPA this week ~ I've used images from the new sheet at collage anonymous on Etsy
As soon as I saw this flamingo I knew he had to be blessed with some long zetti legs.
