This is my card for inspiration challenge #635, inspired by the photo in the bottom row, 2nd from the right. I was inspired by the wooden stools. I rolled some pieces of paper bag around a skewer, inked them with my vintage photo ink pad, and then lightly added white acrylic paint. Glued together, they create a vase for the wheat.

Oh wow, Melody. I just love how you made the vase for your wheat. Is that a cut up skewer? I just so admire your creativity - your ability to think outside the box. Can you get me some of that? Great job with coloring in your wheat and using a pencil. It looks wonderful. Love it!

Remarkable! A very attractive and creative card. The vase and how you created it is awesome. Terrific wheat stalks. Wonderful tall size. Love, love the verse. Well done from your inspiration. TFS

CLEVER, clever, Melody! At first I thought your vase was corrugated, whitewashed cardboard, but oh no...your's is much more clever than that! What a cool idea! Love the simplicity of the wheat and your lovely sentiment!
