Sleepy Moon Part 2

So let me cast you back to January... I created this card HERE and I really didn't like it!
It's been playing on my mind ever since and my friend had her bubba yesterday :D :D So I knew it was time to get moving, so I started from scratch and created a new card.. using the same design base really.

Here it is!
 

I like it soooooooooooooooo much more!!! So I am jolly happy about packaging this up with a bundle of goodies and sending it off to Canada :) 
This design really works well for me! Definitely more solid than my tent card, and it looks neater too! Here is a side view so you can see the dimensions (I Created an envelobox to go with it)


I used the adorable Sleephead Moon from Paper Shelter again. I do love the adorable images from the Paper Shelter :)
Here is a close up look at the moon which I have cute out and attached the stars by thread. It can spin freely amoungst the clouds (Which were a fab freebie from Meljens yesterday!!!)


 Last but not least here is a front on view of the card! Its soooooooo sweet! I love it


I hope you like! I'd be intreagued to know how you think it compares against the first one! I am sooo much happier with it!

I would like to thank the following challenges for their inspiration for this card :)

    Fabulous card! I love the moon hanging in the circle and the intricate fold/set up. I liked the previous one too - but I can see this one is much more stunning!

    Thanks for joining PTT this week and we hope to see you again soon!
