Beautiful card and I love the swallows, They look so lovely perched on those leaves I can see all the work that went into this. Great way to start your Gallery. I hope you will join in some of the challenges -- more people will get to see your beautiful work that way.

What a lovely card! The swallows are really very pretty with the vellum layer on the wings. The soft color of the flowers is a lovely way to accent the birds.
