The First Inspirational Wednesday

This is the start of a new weekly Inspirational Series called 'Inspirational Wednesday'.  I find inspiration for cards in all sorts of different places. 

I've often used my Matai Floorboards or the wood of my Hutch Dresser for a background for my card photos.  Today I though I'd make my Matai floor with all it's history, the nail holes etc, the inspiration for my card.

I've taken the floorboards and transferred them to my card.  The Pear Pizazz is the closest SU colour I could find to my green kitchen walls, which I know you can't see in the photo.  The walls are on my list of things to paint.  While I know it's nowhere even close to Father's Day sometimes a card just calls for a certain greeting.

What inspiration can you find in the photo of my kitchen floor?  Is it the colour, the vertical lines, the woodgrain or the texture?  I'd love to see what you can come up with.

Create your card, take a photo and load it to you blog or gallery. Enter the details into Linkytools below.  Please only enter the web address of your actual post rather than your blog.
