I layed this card out yesterday, but didn't have a chance to assemble it until today. It is my 3rd card of IC165 and was inspired by the Elum Gallery image here: http://www.elumdesigns.com/shop/lett...erpress-birch/.
The main image panel is from the front of a Coldwater Creek catalog I saved from last autumn. I just loved the snowy image with some yellow leaves remaining on the trees!
Hope you like it and thanks for looking!

Be proud of this one M! I love the image. I love that you saved it from a catalog and more that you used it. I have a book full of catalog images. Great masculine card. TFS

When I first saw your card, I thought, that's it. I'm done. I cant even come close to anything this girl does! Oh, much to my relife, you mentioned it's a photo. Whew, I'm off the hook if only momentarily. Divine Ms M, this is just a wonderfully unique and creative card. Such inspiration! It's fabulously designed and presented. Incredible execution. It's a work of art, girl. You done good, today!
