Rebecca Robinson takes a bow....and a birthday!!...

Good morning everyone.....
Do you remember me saying 29 is "my" significant number??.... I finished Rebecca Robinson in the wee hours this morning .... March 29..... Sigh... She's simply grande...

Rebecca Robinson

I could not be more pleased.... I thought for the longest time that Rebecca may have been a city girl longing for the country..

But, I've decided she was a country girl...her love for nature is very prominent throughout...




You will find many birds, butterflies, fruits and flowers flourishing everywhere....




...enclosed entirely with the honeysuckle vine that she obviously loved the most...




My journey with Ms Rebecca has come full circle in three short months..... Soon she will be framed and hanging prominently on my walls for me to visit frequently....
I have SO enjoyed being a part of Nicola's Scarlet Letter Year.... Soon I will reveal what my next project will be.....
*******************************
Speaking of March 29, I'd like to wish our oldest son a Happy Birthday! 29 years ago he was born into this world.... Where have 29 years gone to??




We love you!!!!!




Have a fantastic day everyone...!!!
Faye

I really need to do some SL SAL work, but am in love with my Ann Bowers and can't tear myself away from that right now.
