Another card for Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper October challenge

This is my second card for my Craftyhazelnut's Paper October challenge - please click on the link to see what it's all about and, hopefully, use your patterned papers to join in the challenge. There is a lovely prize to be won:

a Dovecraft curiosity corner 6" x 6" designer paper pack

72 sheet pack - 6 sheets of 12 designs

Once again I used a piece of the Dovecraft curiosity paper, simply adding a variety of garden stickers (they look much better in real life because the silver and gold don't really show up here) and a sentiment.

Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper October challenge

So I used some of the paper for this card and the next (from a different pack, of course - bought one to use and one to give away). I layered two doilies on to which I put a decoupaged Docrafts 'Daisy' cut out and a gold foiled Craftwork cards circle sentiment.

This is also for:
