This is a take on the nursery rhyme Mary, Mary Quite Contrary. It's a very special nursery rhyme to me. My Granddad who has passed away, used to call me Eri Berry and he always said this nursery rhyme to me. "Eri Berry, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?" I had to do this card in honour of him. I think I'll send it to my Grandmother. I didn't think I'd be able to complete this challenge, but I did!

Erika,
I am so glad that you decided to start sharing your art. I love your gallery. Your story is very sweet and reminds me of my grandfather (we were very close, I still miss him as much today as I did when he passed away 20+ yrs. ago!!).
Love the silver bells and the patterned paper, ribbon too. Very Nice!

I love the story behind the card. The card is awesome.
