Hi Sylie, I love the effect of the embossed panel, and the timepieces are perfect. Thanks for your comment on my monochrome trees, it was not hard to do, just mask, stamp and sponge then repeat!

Sylvie you've linked your title to us instead of in the text
It not only links back to us, but your title also helps you find your own posts at a later date

I don't know why you don't like doing cards for men Sylvie because you do them so well! This is fab and I love the sentiment - I think it's one you certainly live by as you do so many lovely things; a picnic in the forest sounds just wonderful! Lovely photos. xx

PS You asked about my husband's job. He's still out of work but has applied for a couple this week. xx

Pauline

Beautiful, I love your postings, with the glimpse of the sea behind the cards, fabulous!

Liz McGuire,

It's spot on. You must be kidding when you say mens cards are tough cos it doesn't show!

That's such a great card Sylvie, love how the watches echo the circles on the embossed card. Great job! I like how we're all taken out of our comfort zone on this challenge each week. Looks like a lovely spot for a picnic too.
