Guest Designer for Country View Challenges

Hello to you all....I was picked as a one of the top three for  Country View Challenge blog for March and was asked if I would like to be a guest designer for the May challenge, well I jumped at the chance...The theme is
 "Natures Glories" 
For my card, I have first stamped the image and clear embossed using black Versafine ink ,I then masked off the moon and using Mustard Seed, Salty Ocean and Black Soot distress inks sponged the background.
This was then matted onto some white and green card after stamping on the birds.
I stamped the sentiment onto a tag made from the same green card and then decorated with some Burlap ribbon.I hope you like it.xxx

I am entering this into
613 Avenue "Anything Goes"
Dream Valley "Anything Goes"
Penny Black and More "Anything Goes"
