Our inspiration site this morning is MacKenzie-Childs, where so many of their items have a checkerboard design. Of course I chose something that didn't have it......, but I added the design to the background of my card. I chose this Highbanks Thistle Pillow in Purple, even though there were myriad thistle choices (I love my thistle stamp!).

I love the image and the colours you chose (purple being my favourite). You certainly have created a gorgeous card...but I can't believe you didn't use the red pillow for inspiration LOL

Strangely enough, I love thistles too (we often see them walking on the trails around here), but I have no stamps ... this inspired card is simply lovely.
