Librarian's Choice - The Tiger who came to Tea

All the cards entered into this challenge were grr-eat! Here are some that caught my eye.

In Julene's simple design, the tiger is the star: 

Julie's spotty card features a large teacup and some tiny 'tigers':

Jane's tiger is an old friend, (she's had this stamp for over 20 years!) :

We're staying in The Library's children's section for now , with another picture storybook - Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! by Mo Willems .  Published in 2003, this award-winning book features a pigeon who's trying his best to persuade you to let him drive the bus...

Maybe you'll be inspired by the word bus, or the speech bubble or the pigeon -or maybe even a seagull or a robin could stand in....

Here's what The Librarian came up with:

This challenge will close on 7th September .
