You can see more of my designs here:

CoD Etsy shop

I have created both of my woodland cards using these wonderful barn owl images from Conjurer of Dreams. I have also used these lovely brown grunge texture papers from Simpson and company.  To make my card more grungy and rusty, I have added lots of texture stamps. I have also added some vintage cluster elements to complete my cards.

For these forest cards, I have used these beautiful forest maiden images from CoD. I just love these digital images, they are so enchanting!

I have also used these wonderful emerald and gold papers from spellbound clip art. To finish, I have added some crackle effect stamps and owl and deer png's.

I hope that I have inspired you to create your own woodland theme cards!
