What a gorgeous site this week. As soon as I saw this rug pattern http://www.ethanallen.com/en_US/047061BLK.html?start=57 I said to myself.. self..this looks just like your favourite DP pack that you bought years ago and have been hoarding ever since! Since I made that New Years Resolution to use up 'old' stuff using this seemed the correct thing to do! LOL All those gorgeous pop-up boxes in the gallery have been driving me crazy so to-day I broke down...hunted out a pattern and took hours to get it just right...what was I thinking...drat inspiration! The greenery was cut with a Marianne Designs and the greeting from a spellbinders die-cut. The flower is Waterlily punch from my closest friend ..dear Martha! I don't know who will get this ..maybe I will just keep it myself. LOL

Sue, it may have caused you a bit of stress but by jove it was worth it! You managed to spread the foliage beautifully (what I found hard) and it looks so pretty and perfectly balanced. Well done you!
