A bit of a different card from me!

I really like how this card has come together and think it's a bit different to my usual 'style'. A lovely friend of mine, Ali was kind enough to send me some dinosaur stamped images using her Basic Grey Archaic stamps (Ali sent me a fab selection of different dinos and on different card and paper). I've matched them with some Archaic papers and some brown fibres. I really like it. I've followed the sketch for the current Lili of the Valley challenge.I'd like to enter this card for the following challenges (I think I meet the criteria!):

Basic Grey Challenges Week 12 - Animals


Stash used:
Square card blank from Craftwork Cards
Basic Grey Archaic papers
Basic Grey Archaic stamped images (on kraft paper)
Brown fibres from ribbon stash stapled onto card - first time I've used staples on a card and I love the look of them ;-)
Card candy dots from Craftwork Cards (centres of distressed punched circles)

Not only did Ali send me the fab dino images but also sent me this lovely card...

    I love the sketch, and your card if fab, any boy would love that! I like how you've used the fibres, I've got loads that I don't use in my stash!
