Oh Sandra, this is lovely! What a marvelous idea and so beautifully executed. I adore that image and was so disappointed to run out of time to use it last year... I will pull it out soon so it doesn't get left out again. The paper is so sweet and I love the sparkly flourish. Wonderful work as always! So nice to see a project from you! :o)

Hugs and blessings!
