Go have a look at Wednesday Stamper and

I would love to be a fly on the wall of your studio. I love the blue washes- were the a part of the Sunday sketches? You have inspired me to make bookmarks out of book pages-(for my daughters shower.) xo teri

Hi
The tape does add that special something but nevertheless, take the tape away and it is still a fabulous card.

OH WHAT A BEAUTIFUL QUOTE~and a beautiful card. It's funny...there are two sides to me and my tastes...there's the victorian lacy side...and then the modern minimalist! that's a strange combination, right!

thanks for your visit!
