Oh this indeed is incredible!!! I LOVE that you masked off a border around the card, and your mountains and sponging are just beautiful!!! It draws the eye right in... and that sentiment is perfect! I need to look that one up for my church cards! TFS!

This is gorgeous! Wow, you did an amazing job lining the tree image up. Your landscape is gorgeous. Makes me think of my husband's favorite place, the Great Smokey Mountains. Beautiful.
