Crafts Galore Encore April 2016

It's the first of April and I hope you haven't fallen foul of any April Fools jokes.
It's time for a new challenge on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge Blog. Thank you to everyone who joined in with the March challenge. The winners are on the challenge blog 'winner's page'. This is a month long challenge and you can enter up to three times. A full list of rules are on the challenge blog.
Our theme this month is everyone's favourite:
"Anything Goes"
and this month's sponsor is Beccy's Place  who will award 3 digi images or one set of digi images to the winner.

I was lucky enough to receive one of Beccy's fabulous images to work with and I made this Springtime card with it. I made a tent card that will fit into a C5 envelope.

I stared by making a couple of panels with papers from First Edition Mulberry Kisses. I added a layer of cheesecloth in between them and a doily on top. Then I wrapped a couple of lengths of ribbon around them before fixing to the card base.

This gorgeous image is called Shabby Chic Birdhouse and I printed it out four times so I could decoupage the roses, ribbons and leaves. I coloured the image with Copics, cut out the decoupage layers and mounted them up with small foam pads.

I made a ribbon tassel and tags and die-cut some SB feathers. I finished the card with a couple of birds from a stamp/die-cut combo by Heartfelt Creations.
Now please visit the  Crafts Galore Encore challenge blog to see the fabulous projects my talented team mates have created for your inspiration. We look forward to seeing your entries for this month's challenge.
I'll be back shortly with my project for Creative Artiste.
I've entered this card in the following challenges:
