    What a great card and such a contrast between the image and the backing. The backing is really beautiful with those woodland colours and the look of texture. The image is fun, and coloured beautifully.

    Embossing patterned paper, that's a great idea! I don't think I've ever used anything but plain colored paper myself. Love how it looks, I must try that...
