I tried to use actual cork for the background. After a frustrating hour I gave up and went with the paper version of cork. I had it all planned out at 3 am in the morning. I learned a 10am in the morning that, I need to find thinner cork. I will have to tweek this a bit. If any of you out there are in a Book Group, you know, this is a perfect card for them. I need to make 6 more. I may try to make a picture, I can frame. That would be the definition of perfection for a Christmas gift for book group members. I guess I will have to ponder that another night at 3am.
