I am combining Beate's WSC32 with the IC114. This week our inspiration was a lovely bed out on a sleeping porch with the ocean in the background. I built my card around the ethereal quote by Thoreau (Wordsworth). All my pattern papers are from Cosmo Cricket 'HEY Sugar' group double sided. I used Tim Holtz mustard seed distress ink for the sentiment, embossing in clear ep. My floral wallpaper is Honey,Honey which I cut some of the flower petals for dimension. The big scallop edge is part of packaging from Fancy Pants...just never know when something will come in handy! My window out to the sea is from Michelle Ward's Green Pepper Press. I stamped it with walnut stain distress ink and embossed in a rust distressing powder. The view out my window is from Paper House Productions, a Renoir painting...lovely isn't it. I used the rectangle scallops to mat the window...with the middle rectangle a floral pattern, it reminds me of a bedspread....hence part of my title. My solid cs is unknown, using my stash and the rose layer has been distressed.
So I've got my very own room with a view...pretty cool don't you think?
