This card is another to add to my 'Inspired by...' series.
I thought this one would be easy but I've been faffing around for ages trying to put this one together! I started with a square base card, then abandoned it. Next I tried a portrait card, and yes, abandoned that too! So I settled on this landscape version. I'm not loving this card, really not sure why. I like all the elements but not sure I like them together. Anyhow, I thought I would share it with you and add it to my stash.
and here is where my inspiration came from...
My bed linen!

It's beautiful Anita and I love how you've tied all the elements together. It's sometimes like that though when you spend ages on a card - it doesn't feel right until someone else casts an eye over it. Fabulous bedding too. xx
