  12. Hi Kate

    Super gorgeous card! I am in love with this shape. But it needs lots of die cuts so I can only dream. Loving the purple colour scheme as well. Woof, woof from DP for the image and my appreciation for you colouring it in so beautifully.
    What Olympics opening ceremony? Just kidding! But I did not watch. I was watching Big Brother instead.
