Normal is Boring - yes, sometimes it is,
but other times, it's fun to splash out and enjoy yourself.

Two more days of cards to go, so come back and visit again.
Happy Crafting!
This is so cute, Helen, that one cannot help but smile and think how great it would be if it actually rained flowers! I like everything about this, but my favorite parts are the cool jacket that Brutus is wearing and, of course, the glossy glasses! This had to be fun to create!
