Well....wanted to try out this image in the Coffee Flourishes set....and while taking the photo, decided to display a gift I received recently. Mothermark and I share an affinity for polka dots and when she received a set of these fabulous scissors I TOTALLY COVETED them. But, being a friend, I was happy that if I couldn't have them at least a fellow polka dot loving friend received them. Well...time went by and lo and behold, a package arrrived in my mailbox from Mothermark.......a bit afraid at first that something might explode (ya gotta love her sense of humor...lol), I cautiously opened the package.......and those scissors....those marvelous polka dotted, never to touch paper, precious scissors were inside. Thanks again, Cindy, you made my year......decade....century........and now YOU haunt my workshop......and what a delightful 'haunter' you are.....thanks, gf.
Edited to add......these were not the ones Mothermark received as a gift....she would certainly not part with those.....she just happened to find another set and sent them to me........felt like I should add that so that it didn't look like she parted with her set.......SHE would not do that....!!!!

There will be some real inspired cutting going on with these babies--you two are definitey the queens of dots! What a sweet pink cuppa to serve as a backdrop.
