IC230 Summer In Provence

Photo Details

Poster: hobbydujour

I did another card for today's IC Challenge. Something is not right in the gallery for today's cards, but I'll give it another try. Many of us are getting the dreaded "red X's".

This card was inspired by placemats/coasters from the "Jazz it Up" site in the home accessories section. You'll have to scroll down to see them...sorry that I don't know the secret for giving a precise link. http://www.jazzitupinteriors.co.uk/a..._COASTERS.html

Such and nice image, love those sunflowers in the field and the woodgrain and polka dots work great for a background.

I love your card - the woodgrain and polka dots are perfect - and the rafia a nice touch, I love using it on cards. Everything works together beautifully!

Oh, I can almost smell the lavender. Except that the lavender fields I visited were round an abbey, but I could certainly feel myself back in Provence looking at this. TFS.
