Not too happy with this, but I've spent most of the day in bed with a stinking headache. I'd seen the sketch, and made this after getting back from a walk before going back to bed. I liked the thought that I could use a softer version of the same image on the back panel, but something hasn't worked. Such as it is, here it is .
5 3/4" square base.
Papers are Basic Grey Piccadilly.
Penny Black Blush stamped with markers in colour and in grey.
Green strip is embossed with SU lattice folder and has twine wrapped round it.
I liked the way the circular element in the sketch was tucked under the image panel - so maybe tomorrow I can have another go and achieve something I am happier with.

I like the back image looking like a silhouette of the front image. It's like fading in the background. I agree with you about the circular element, but I didn't tuck mine under either. Your button with the twine ties everything together, no pun intended! Hope you feel better~
