Lots of you entered this challenge and it was such a tough choice to pick just one winner! It was especially tough for me as I have a weakness for small squeaky things (with four pet rats constantly demanding attention!).

In the end we selected this card design by MINIJUDY! Well done! We loved the adorable design and thought it was beautifully coloured and assembled.

If you could email your address to alice.lipscombe-southwell@immediatemedia.co.uk  then I'll get your prize sent through. Well done again!
