Default Leaves and Ladybugs
Hi Everyone,
I know it's been forever since I posted anything but here is something I finally finished after working on it off and on for a long time.Since the timing is just right I may give it to my Mom as a christmas present. Sorry the pictures are kind of bad and fuzzy "fingers crossed for a new camera from Santa?" Thanks for looking!
Joe

Delightful. I love the design and the elements around the edges are very graceful and whimsical at the same time.
I can see why it took awhile.
Glad to see it.
