Garden Lattice M-bossabilities folder from Spellbinders

I don't think you could have picked a better image for this card. It's PERFECT. I think I might need to get it too for my aunt who will be 50 in October. Still plenty of time, but when I saw this image and your card, this was the first thing that crossed my mind. Thank you for the idea! :D Hugs! xx
