Card by Cindy

I just love this card Cindy created using the image "Romantic Moment". The coloring is so understated it creates an "airy" feeling just right for this image - and just look at that little airplane embellie with the ribbon tail smoke and dangling hearts! Really lovely work. You can see more of Cindy's work on her blog.
