Golden Glowing Ladybugs

Posted by Judy (Brooksville, Florida, United States) on 17 December 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

There are many different ladybug ornaments on our tree, gifts from family and friends. These, from David & Tracey, are especially meaningful this year ... the first without you in our lives, David; we love and miss you so...

PS: Thank you to all of you who enjoyed and commented on my 'Friendship Intertwined', yesterday.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog; your comments are greatly appreciated. I apologize for not getting to all of your posts. I will visit as time permits.

I like the starburst effect (or whatever you call it) especially where it goes outside the frame in a couple places - nice job.
