...That's a lovely card. I love unusual cards.<br /><br />I once had a box that looked like a book which I passed onto a friend filled with chocolate! It confused my friend because she had never seen boxes like it, and she spent time looking for the title. My friend is a great reader too, so I new she would love the box. She still fills it with chocolate which she hides from her son and family when they visit.<br /><br />Julie xxxxKC'sCourt!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16768777808237333266noreply@blogger.com
