I spy with my little eye some sweet, whimsical, woodland goodness. I spotted these delights over on MaeMae Paperie.

Lace always reminds me of montains

I don't know what it is, but lace always reminds my of mountains. When I'm in the west, it reminds me of the old west of the nineteenth century full of spunk and a can-do attitude.
