Love the inspiration site this week. I have a thing for pottery and kitchenware. It's firmly under control though I did see a melamine set that would make a wonderful baby/child gift. Anyway, I was inspired by this tea towel http://www.emmabridgewater.co.uk/mat...vt/1teg010914/ and used the outdoor scene and the fresh greens and blues to colour my scene.
The stamp is by Impression Obsession and water coloured with Tombows. The die is Memory Box Birch Trio. The card is 5 x 7 which is a bit bigger than I usually make but the size supports the die well. My SIL is going to laugh when she sees the die. She will know I finally bowed to temptation and visited One Crazy Stamper. :-)

We chose the same inspiration piece! Your scene here is so peaceful and beautiful and the birch trees are FABULOUS! I think you made a good purchase there ;)

Beautiful card! The inspiration piece was an English garden, but you translated that to a lakeside scene that we would see here is North America. I like your light touches colour on the stamped image… allows the details of the stamp to show through.
