I used The Crafty Pad - Hedgehog Harry in Circle of Flowers image, I printed the complete image several times because I wanted one for the front and another for the inside, I also wanted to decoupage the flowers. I then cropped the flowers and reduced them so that I could use them to decorate the corners, these have also been decoupaged. I decided to use lovely bright colours for the flowers and used my ProMarkers.
On the inside of my card, I have cut away Hedgehog Harry and stamped a sentiment, I then decoupaged the flowers to match the front:
