So delighted you were a part of MMW as a guest designer. And love that sunflower. Love how you did all that fussy cutting because it just pops off the frame. I will definitely be over to check out your blog as well. <br /><br />With smiles<br />Laine Kammeraad<br />DT MMWLaine Kammeraadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09245773948186277291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630870386276408912.post-82847973348576705662015-11-01T19:05:07.859+00:002015-11-01T19:05:07.859+00:00The texture is amazing, and how very clever to do ...The texture is amazing, and how very clever to do this so that you can alternate the art!Marjie Kemperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09012764263520267030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6630870386276408912.post-73973699336582515662015-10-29T11:14:59.961+00:002015-10-29T11:14:59.961+00:00Wow this is wonderful Astrid!
