Decorated Jigsaw

A swap for the lovely Secret Swapper group on UKScrappers, a very select group of loony ladies :o) This is an altered jigsaw, a Bo Bunny jigsaw that is now very hard to get hold of but I picked one up ages ago at a craft fayre and didn't know what to do with it except stroke it every now and then and put it back in the drawer I had at the time labelled, "Super Beautiful Things".
Thankfully the lovely Karen had other ideas... 9 of us to a group (there's 9 pieces per jigsaw) and we each pick a theme... we decorate each piece according to the themes and end up with 9 pieces on our theme... sound complicated? It is but fortunately Karen knows what she's doing :oD
Unfortunately someone dropped out of my group so there's only 8 pieces decorated. Here they are:
Theme Wild African Animals esp Tigers Top Right for Helen (Main image from Etsy shop Tornadocap)
