This is a card for my friend's mum, who has been having a really bad time lately. She has had a melanoma removed from her face and a skin graft which has involved a lot of pain. As she is not a well woman anyway it's been and still is a lot to go through.I'm hoping this will cheer her up - I certainly enjoyed making it and even made a box to protect my decoupage in the post. Think someone is getting a little carried away after their break!!
The layout is from the sketch at The Next Level where the challenge is to use the sketch, but also make a card with a decoupaged element on it. If you haven't heard about The Next Level yet you really must check it out. It's amazing - full of really interesting stuff - I love it.

Ann, operations like this are hard enough when you are "well" but when you are not it certainly stakes the stuffing out of you. Your friend's Mum will be certainly cheered up with this lovely card. Glad to hear you had a good break in York and pleased to see you back and blogging. Kym xxx
What a beautiful card Ann. Your decoupage is just spot on ... not sure I could've managed so many layers without losing patience... and a matching box too! WOW.
Hope your mum's friend doesn't have to go through too much more pain and suffering b ut I'm sure she'll appreciate the time and effort you have put into this card.
Luv'n'Stuff
