Very pretty, Cheryl! Good use of the border punch - one of those gadgets I have sitting around and never seem to think of...

I especially like the way the yellow Renaissance vellum shows the pattern of the card back, which I like to have peeking through on each card I do. The scan has made the colors look a little funny, but they go from a beige-y color to yellow orange. This was fun!
Congrats on this making it into the July Scrap Rap. :clap: It was great seeing this there. Nicely done Ink-Pattie!!!

I had to wait until I could get home and print out a suitable photo. There wasn't a thing in the magazines I had in NJ. I love monochromatic photos or paintings in mostly white with no horizon. This is one of those amazing photos that makes the rounds of people's inboxes. I have no idea who took it but it's been my desktop wallpaper for weeks. I didn't want to add anything else to spoil it.

That's one of those shots I wish I'd taken! Beautiful and very Asian in the form and deceptive simplicity.
