Even though I only became familiar with Danielle Flanders and her unique style a few short years ago, in that time she has inspired me so much with the way she layers and embellishes her projects.  She has a magic touch when it comes to transforming small bits of paper and scraps of ribbon into beautiful accents for her projects. 

We are all in for a special treat with her new e-book from Ella Publishing, The Embellishing Handbook.
