Oh, when I watched your video on You Tube this morning I didn’t realize it was part of a Blog Hop! Guess I wasn’t paying close enough attention! LOL As I said in the chat, this card is gorgeous and would also make a nice sympathy card, which are always harder to create (for me, anyway). Nicely done!
