My beautiful Tiger photos.

PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR MY DT POST FOR AUD SENTIMENTS 

I have made this layout using a kit from Just So Scrappy called Who's At The Zoo which I used in my Digital Scrapbook Artist. The photos were taken over a year ago when the family took a trip to Dartmoor Zoological Park - it was fantastic and I got some amazing photographs. These are the ones I was soooooo pleased with, it was as if the Tiger was posing for them. I will hopefully do some more layouts with some more pictures from this day and we will be going again sometime over the summer holidays. If you are down in Devon check the Park out - I am sure you will have a great day.

I am entering this layout in the following challenges......

By the Cute and Girly - Animal Antics

Creative Craft Challenges - Animal Antics

Totally Papercrafts - At the movies (I thought "Jungle Book")

Alphabet Challenge - N is for Nature
