Barb(Amisjag) suggested the site of Bella Soleil to Stef for our inspiration. What a fantastic site filled with lovely Italian wares...especially ceramics.
I chose these OLIVE JARS. I recently had purchased some Tim Holtz metallic distress stains and was anxious to try them. The colors of these jars seemed to have a metallic look to me. I find photographing metallic sheens quite challenging...so the copper really didn't show up in the bg as it does IRL, which makes it go with the banding on the foliage panel.

Sallie, I can see the metallic distress stains in my upload so I can only imagine just how beautiful it looks IRL. Love how you stamped your sentiment on vellum to allow the design of your wonderful background to show through. This is a fantastic inspired card.
