    Utterly beautiful, Nikki. The white-embossed birdcage just pops right off the card; love it. The flowers are gorgeous, and I love all the subtle stamping. Another WOW from you, my friend.

    I just had to pop over from 'Just add ink' to tell you how amazing I think your card is, I only hope that someday my cards will be half as brilliant as this one!
