    Good Morning Mina, great card as always, fantastic idea to use patterned paper as the background. That's what we noticed about you the first time we saw your entry for the Sugar Nellie DT, you think outside the box, a wee bit different and always inspiring. Its great to have you as part of the team and I big thank you from me for your hard work, always.
