Card Patterns #77

Hello everyone.  I am back to share my card for this weeks sketch at Card Patterns.  This week is sponsor free so I got to use from my own stash.  I decided to use one of my favorite vintage images.  I just love Poppies.  They grow along the interstate here.  As you drive by you see miles of beautiful Poppies.  I guess they planted them there.  I just moved here so I am not quite sure.  So any who..on to the card.
I think I am going to break down and just get a light tent.  Usually I have decent light, but it is best mid afternoon in the room where I take my pictures.  This was taken in the morning.
I will be back to morrow to share the card I made for my husband.  It is our 11 year anniversary today.  We are going to go to dinner and maybe some shopping.  It is still pretty darn hot here.  The good thing...it cools down as soon as the sun goes down.  It is lower humidity and that makes a huge difference.

Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI/ Rustic Cream
DP:Basic Grey & October Afternoon
Image: off the internet
Seam Binding: Blue Bird Lane Etsy
Sentiment: PTI/Beautiful Friend

Thanks so much for stopping by
Have a wonderful weekend,

Heather
