A Card for Claire of Hope Jacare

Ive created this card for Claire of Hope Jacare, I promised her I would make a card with this digi stamp and I sincerely hope she likes my interpretation of it. This digi image is full of lovely nooks and crannies that you can colour and its called "Candyfloss Trees" with owls sitting in the holes in the trunks.

The image was printed out and coloured with my copic pens, after which Ive used MS glitters on the tree tops just to give it a little glitz.

The base card is a 7"x 7" white card, with a first layer of aqua blue card, Ive also used this for the mount and the sentiment, on this I have layered up one of three papers from the very new "Bearly Mine Designs" from Donna, she is the most talented lady I know, and these patterns are the staple ones we use like gingham, spots and flowers, Im sure you will find some beautiful designs in the sets as I have. The first paper I used was a lovely bluebell flower paper on white, and on top of this Ive used a aqua blue spotty paper and one of the Arches MS border punches which was stuck down the card, the last layer is a green gingham paper and this was also punched along the edges with a bird branch MS border punch, and this was stuck across the other two layers and a ribbon was positioned across the middle and attached to the back.

My mounted image was then stuck on top and my sentiment to the bottom on the right. The white materal flower is one of the new Prima range ones and the blue ones are ones I found in my stash, these were attached to the card with some silcone glue and some punched out fern leaves stuck underneath them. 

I also want to thank you all who left the most beautiful and touching comments yesterday on what was a difficult day for me, but also a very rewarding day in many ways. So thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
