Um, I'm actually thinking something along the lines of:

Garden Found
Karla B. Santoro
2009

Or some variation thereof. :P :P

Well, if it's that, it would have to be "Gabrielle's Garden", because it's obviously a very formal one!! LOL.

So--is the ink pen okay--I don't have labels...although they can't be too difficult, eh?
It feels like a book signing. :lol:

Headed to work...

I couldn't decide on a width for the first one--3" too narrow, 3.5" close, 4" too wide... so I cut 4.25" for a finished 3.75" Good grief. :roll: The second border was easier on me-it's cut at 2". Binding is cut--it'll be the green.

Measures 84" square and man, this baby is square--the corners matched perfectly when I folded it up.
Overall, I'm pleased.
