Kathie, you've got my favorite image, a teddy all wrapped in luscious greens and reds - fabulous! I love the embossing, slightly hidden behind the layers and the ink distressing really brings it out together. The way you made your flowers is just too awesome for words - they really do stand out lovely the way you've put them together! Love the new blog look - looks SPECTACULAR!
