Ok, should I comment on the card or your dress picture first?? I think I will start with the dress.. number one, you look adorable and number two I can't believe you made that. You don't even look like you are out of high school..was that a class project or something..LOL Just joking. Now to your super cute card. We know you love bears, so we expected a bear image from you right? ;) Your colors look wonderful and those flowers..OH those flowers are sooooooooo perfect. I bet you made the card to match the flowers just so you could use them huh?
ReplyDeletePriscilla
I can't believe you MADE that DRESS! CArol, Gosh you are So Talented!!! You look Just RADIANT in it and with that smile too :) Thanks for helping make the party happen!! xox ~Jeni
