Ohhh, I have been here before, a few times. I can't remember where from though!! Think it was House Mouse Monday Challenge or maybe Penny Black? Well, either way, I shall be following you so that my encounters are much more frequent!! Love this card, it is stuffed full of wonderful things, got a vintage feel to it, love that!! Good luck with my little mini-candies, and thanks for taking part :)
