I am SUPER Late to the tea party! The (now last week's) tea party theme was Frank Lloyd Wright. I was so inspired by all the awesome cards posted that I went on an internet search and found this, https://www.maclinstudio.com/collect...ed-glass-panel, which inspired my card. (Now that I look at it, I'm not sure if this window is actually from FLW or inspired by his style as well.) I used the I-O ginko die as the main element and created a Wright-inspired frame around it using a ruler and pen, with colored pencils added later.

What a lovely inspiration window you found, and recreated so perfectly. That's a lovely leaf die. Very occasionally, like about three times in over 11 years, I have found a ginkgo leaf on the path near work...but I've never been able to spot the tree they come from.

How did I miss this. I am slowly catching up with all the Teapotter cards. I love the colours and how calming the ginko leaves are. The window frame reminds me of fabulous art deco windows.
