Nice card, Kate. Expensive embellishments! Your coloring is nice. (I've been trying to use the 10+2 rule now each time I color!)

Hi Blanche! Wow, I see highlights and casting shadows on this Tilda! I am also noticing how the card flows and takes you around the loop! Inside joke!!!;-)
But, no kidding, this card is adorable and beautifully done. I love the way you used the twill ribbon on your sentiment tag! Hope you're enjoying the heat! Hugs... Barb <><
