Hi Nic, well this one is just amazing! Stunning image, perfectly coloured and I love the colour scheme. Tho I do tend towards the pastely (is that a word!) colours. Love the little corner on the edge of the image. Sarah
PS, Thanks for the advice on my blog - I find that it's the purples and yellows that I'm having a lot of trouble with. Will have to try the white pen trick.
Oooh your card is luscious Nic... and hey.. stop spoiling your nice week off with talk of things like hoovers!!
LOL!
