There is a lot going on in this card - embossing, stamping, buttons, ribbon, thread.......and yet.......it's all about the tiny tag. Everything else is lovely but that tiny tag makes me smile. I just returned from a trip to Florida to visit my mom. Two days driving down, five days there and two days driving back. The seaside condo was lovely, the beach was gorgeous and Disney World was terrific.......and yet.......it was all about those 4 days I spent in the car traveling with my grown-up "kids". Everything else was lovely but it's those four days that make me smile.....we had a great time........
Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches!
Just gorgeous Linda- it kind of reminds me of my MIL's china plate collection with the colours you used! Love it!
