I don't know why I struggled with this sketch. I had a couple of ideas in my mind. One was to reduce the size of the green strips to make it more of a cross, include a bird and the sentiment "Peace" to commemorate D-Day but whatever I did it looked rubbish! Plan B was this card here. I thought ribbon tying a present hence the bow being the same patterned paper although perhaps the bow would of been better being red? Plus the oval mat seems to big? I don't know...not sure but at this stage I'd had enough! Just hasn't been my weekend! But I do like the flocked window sheet I've used!
Gorgeous, Pat!!! LOVE the textured paper and the fabulous paper bow, too! So elegant! Thanks for joining us at 52CCT! :) HUGS and enjoy your week! Mynn xx
