Where is the green sheep?

My friend is having a baby! 

And I decided I wanted to give her/baby a copy of Where is the Green Sheep by Mem Fox - a gorgeous storybook kids love - and since she's a kids librarian, she knows its adorableness. 


So I made this to go with the book. (I haven't bought the book yet, otherwise if put it next to my sheep in a photo!)


He's pretty adorable! Worked out so much better than I had hoped! :) 
I made up an interesting oval thing for his nose, it took me a few goes to get it right - and I doubt I could replicate it even if I tried haha. 

He doesn't stand up, but that's cool - he's soft and squishy and likes to dance to the songs from Tangled. 
I'll take another photo tomorrow, cos the wooly part of Green Sheepy looks washed out in these photos!

You should read this picture book- it's pretty adorable. It's always a hit at story time for all ages. :)
