Moira - I can't believe that I just found your email with the link to Byron here - 3 months later. I am so sorry. Tonight I was cleaning out my inbox and came across it. It's beautiful. I hope you don't mind if I post it now to my blog and then add your blog link as well.
Thanks!
I'm still 'at' the Byron thing. We are doing a round robin book (envelope book) - so he is still 'alive and well!"
The pages are at www.therecollectionparlor.blogspot.com if you ever want to see what he's up to :0)
Thanks again,
TRUDI
