  6. Beautiful...looks like a painting! I had about 4 or five sweet allyssum blooms left a week ago, and then they died off and one small black eyed susan was left. All gone now for the winter :)

  18. It's beautiful, Nancy! I still have no clue how to do layers, which I'm sure requires me to buy something... and I'm cheap. If I ever get good enough, maybe, but for now I can't justify it. I sure do enjoy yours!
