Hello everyone!
I am so thrilled to share the exciting news! I am now a member of Flourishes Design Team!! I am very blessed and glad that they are not tired of me yet, lol. Anyway, this is my first post as a FLLC DT and hope you will continue to come back here from time to time :)

The rest of supplies: white cotton lace, rhinestones, CME paper -Rich Browns, Pistachio, designer paper, decorative edge punch
