  7. #1 is just as gorgeous & elegant as can be, with the pristine white & that splash of red. Love that die & bet those inlays were fiddly little bits to do. #2 was so cute and just made me smile at the sweet whimsical image in the bright colors. You've got a pretty little houseguest with an interesting project going on. TFS & Hugs

  20. Gosh that heart die has so much detail to it. Love how you picked out a few of the flowers to highlight. I was imagining it with all sorts of different pastel colours inlaid into it but how long would that take....eeekkk!!! And that little giraffe is totally adorable with his glittery pillow. Such a shame it was a day late but looks like Miss Rachel had a lot of fun getting crafty!!

  22. "Sweet" creations Kim! I love the inlaid flowers and the cool script paper! Sweet giraffe - great job turning her into a V-day card (based on the bling, I'm assuming it's a 'her' ).

    Your young house guest must have been in her glory, surrounded by all your crafty goodies! She looks very proud of her fabulous project!
