| Waiting for dinner, watching boats and feeding ducks. We went to Newport Bay in Portland along the river, which is a floating restaurant. It was a wonderful and beautiful evening. |

| The inspiration photograph lead me to use the colors of the drapery and walls as well as the butterfly seen on the pillow for both of my card. The layout that inspired me was one from a gorgeous card created by Kharmagirl, which can be seen at http://stampingalatte.blogspot.com/2011/07/july-sfytt-is-here.html Her creation is stunning by the way and well worth the time to go look. |
