This week's Inspiration challenge on SCS sent us to ERTE, a painter from Russia, whose gallery is full of elegant artistry. I was drawn to this painting here:http://www.doubletakeart.com/cgi-bin...387&o=d&cc=dtg I liked the elegance of the vase paired with the natural and simple background pieces. The elements in my card include a simple vase paired with an elegant background. The card base is a regular A2 size and the top panel measures 6 X 6. The excess sizing makes the card stand like a topper card. More deets below and . . .
thanks so much for looking!

Just so beautiful background there Chris! What fun that you used this sobre image and light it all up with your soft colours. Love the ribbon treatment. What a piece of art this is. TFS
