For my card, I've used this image called A Micey Gift from the Birthday Collection. For an added 3-D effect, I've stamped the image twice and cut out the 2nd image and mounted it on foam tape/dimensionals.

I've also given the card a distressed look for a change.

    Stunning card. Love the colours and the way you've distressed the DP. I'd be interested in knowing how you managed to get the oval matt using the crown border punch. Is there a tutorial somewhere?
