Created ByHand Challenge - Flowers

I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to exchange art with so many friends that I have met around the world through blogging. I am always thrilled to have someone email me personally suggesting a private swap. Often the artwork received comes with little treats and this wonderful tatted flower was one of them. My lovely friend created it herself and I knew that I just had to use it when I was creating this fabric book page. This is my entry for the Created ByHand challenge this week.

This is just awesome, Heather. Awesomely beautiful!!! I love the colors, the image, and especially the lace. The tatted flower is lovely, what a nice little gift, made with love I'm sure.

I'm sure there are hoards of people who'd love to swap with you. I consider myself very lucky to be one of them.
