Such a simple card to make, to make the clock background I didnt even mount the stamp I just stamped it randomly using my hand as I didnt want a perfect image, I stamped the leaves onto cream card with the distress inks and embossed them with the clear powder and cut them out, I then stamped the twigs & sentiment and then the Owl I just adore him :)...
