    I think you and Ruth were on the same wavelength with that lovely poinsettia image! :) I can't say I blame you - I think that set is an instant classic. The embossing really gives it a special elegance.

Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
