Merry Monday #280

This is the photo inspiration for this week's Merry Monday.
There's a lot to take in but the first thing that caught my eye were the beautiful topiaries in the center of the table.  So out came my long neglected PTI stamp and this was born.
The white PTI panel reminded me of a fancy table cloth and I foam mounted it on the plaid.  The topiaries were cut from black, the bases heat embossed in platinum and the tops die cut in green.  I love that the little leaves are three dimensional.  The sentiment is from PB and I think maybe I should have added the word Christmas somewhere but it's too late now.

I'm so glad you dropped by today.  I love it when you do.

That's a great take on this sketch! I love the plaid and the "tablecloth" you've made - that panel is fantastic!! And those sweet topiaries...They look amazing. What a great card, and I think that the 'greetings' might be just enough. This says 'Christmas' perfectly. Great card. Bev
