    Thank you for supporting my contest and congratulations on your placement Ellie. Love, Carol

    Carol - it was a challenging theme and took some struggling(...) ......... and although I could write several books about it in a figurative sense as well as to the letter The theme made me look with 'eagle-eyed vision' the the moment supreme.. Knowing that that is seen and read with the extra bonus of awarded with a 1st prize.. made my day!TY Ellie Daphne
