So my friend Janice sometimes finds interesting things in clearance bins and gifts some to me, as we live at opposite ends of the US our stores carry different bits and pieces and she gifted me with these burlap flowers a long long time ago. (told me she was curious to see what I would do with them) I will have to remember to nudge her and point out that I did not forget and finally found my 'round to it. I thought the texture of them mixed well with this print and scene. This was done inspired by this shot here seen inside the Inspiration challenge this weekend. I did shoot this wet and the liquid glue that smooshed out around that skinny word diecut was visible which I did not notice until I uploaded the card but, it actually dried in real life since this was shot and you cannot see it anymore lol. I have a couple extra closer looks at this here on the blog & You can find that challenge here to play along with us. tfl.

A beautiful card inspired by Audubon. Thanks for the inspiration site. I love his work, so many species of birds so meticulously recorded in his artwork. Most impressive.
