I love this! Only from a fellow Texan... =)

Bet this would also look smashing in outdoor sidelight! Love the textures. This screams greeting card!

Nice job, Murry. #8841

Thanks all. I'm a Texan by choice so I hope that qualifies? Have live in the Conroe, Houston and Woodlands areas for about 26 years. I do photo greeting cards and yes it really looks great in the one with "God Bless America" on it. #13746
