Wheat is turning from Green to Brown

Recycle - July's mantra.  What can I recycle?  The famous TISSUE BOX.  There are many tissue boxes tempting you on the shelves to buy them.  I check the price and then the color, finally the design.  My co-workers save boxes for me too.  I am now floating in boxes, some high caliber designs and colors and then some on the decidingly DRAB end.  This tissue box was beautiful.

To go on, I framed the tissue box with Garden Patch to see what it looked like and loved it.  Adding the wheat in the same green tones enhanced the whole.  I added a message to encourage a friend..

This is also my example card for July at Die Cut Divas..  In July, I hope for green as I live in dry California.  This is my dream vision of July.

This is just gorgeous, Arlene! You are so creative! Not even Oregon is green this year, but we're hoping for a good snow pack this winter.
