Let's craft and create challenge 115

This is my design card for Let's craft and create 115: our four-legged friends - please click on the link to see the lovely designs of the rest of the team and we hope you will join in our challenge.

I was asked to make this card for a friend to give to her mum - she said that she loved bright colours and animals, wild ones in particular, so I used this lovely 'fun in the jungle' digital image from Stitchy Bear's digi outlet, colouring with spectrum noir pens.  When printed, the image was cut out on my Scan n cut and mounted on to an offcut piece of red paper. I thought the offcut piece of spotted background paper gave a bit more brightness and I added a snippet strip of animalprint paper wrapped with the paw print grosgrain ribbon with some glitter strips on the sides. The little circles are mini shakers from Paperrchase. Although it's difficult to see the sentiment says 'Happy Birthday Mum' and the numerals are gold foiled.
