I almost missed your post, Yvonne. Didn't see a link to it on Stephanie's blog but checked at the Catch the Bug blog and found out you were listed there. :-D Love this card! How wonderful that you did it in traditional red and green even though he's in the tropics, feasting on seafood and rum. Love it !
