    Beautiful projects and love the big contrast between the two. Amazing layers on the layout, love the torn and distressed edges on all the layers and pink and black contrast with all the different textures. And the card is just stunning, love this collection. Again amazing layers with distressed and torn edges and love the stitching and how you placed the chipboard and beautiful frame. All of your work is beautiful.
