I looked up how to make a lattice card or a front lattice card and this is my creation. and the inside. I needed a birthday card for a very special lady that loves...

Her braces went back on and her jaw was wired shut with the rubber bands. She loves Outback but had to settle on a liquid diet for her birthday and then for about 4 weeks. I made her this card for her birthday. It is based on a card by the fabulous Patty Bennett. See her...

Well I looked at the card I had made and wouldn't you know it. It was upside down! Which do you like better - raindrops heavy at the bottom or the top or...
