    I saw this card on my sidebar and had to take a look. It's beautiful. I was not familiar with the stamping gear. I googled and found it...how cool it is! Another thing for the list of 'wants'. LOL

    Happy Birthday my far flung friend! I totally love your beautiful card. The image reminds me of some little feathery things I was fascinated by recently in a rockpool. Awesome!

    I was thinking 'absolutely beautiful" as I was waiting for the comment window to open and then there it was already said by Miami Kel...she's exactly right! I love the way you used the leaves and branches, I have to copy this for sure! I love it!
