6. A pretty note would be nice too! You might write about a book you are reading or recommend a good book!

I cannot join yet however I have a suggestion. The August theme/color is difficult to read. Is it possible to outline the yellow type in black? That would be great.

August is Back to School/yellow. The yellow is difficult to read though. I was able to expand the text to read it better.
Hope this helps.

Well here I am again this time to thank Cristy for her book mark. It is a real work of art, so beautiful, love it and the buttons too!

I also received my mail art today and they coordinate so perfectly I had to photograph them together.

Thanks again!
