Hi Melissa,
Just a few words that came to mind with this creations, SCRUMPTILICIOUS,AWESOME, GORGEOUS,INSPIRING,STUNNING,MARVELOUS, BREATHTAKING,GLORIOUS….sorry, ran out of adjectives!
Cariños,
María Alba
P.D. In case you are wondering SCRUMPTILICIOUS is a word that I invented, joining scrumptious and delicious, these adjectives are not for food only, in my humble opinion….just saying!
Could we please have a product list? I saw it scroll by very fast on the YouTube channel.
Stunning card!
