I love the colours you have used and the cut off tail - well, if you had more time you could stamp him again, cut off the missing bit and it would look like he'd flown into the picture! Or not. It's wonderful as it is. Will catch you on the TV as this week is manic as I'm packing for Australia and a visit to my big girl who's out there for a year or two.
