Great challenge Stef. I took my inspiration from the cover of a book I recently fininshed. Since I've been limited in stamping, I've been reading, reading & reading. It took me a long time to get a layout, so I went to my SC notebook - I print them each week. I chose 226 b/c of the circle (placed on dementionals) b/c of the binocculars. I also ran the blue in the bird call cuttlebug folder w/o the bird.
Thanks for stopping by to take a look.
Edit: Pretty good book too, Nignt and Day by Robert Parker. It's a Jesse Stone book if you are familiar w/ Parker. In the TV movie, Tom Selleck played Jesse.

We just watched that movie.....it was great. Wasn't he investigating a murder, a couple ended up being the killers and there was a sweet little golden retreiver in the movie? Your card is great! Love how you were inspired today!
