I like multiples too. If the subject is good there is no limit. Very inventive and warm. By the way....The gravy spot really happened...another time it was like the print-out emblem when a T.V. station leaves the air Love, daver

I need to tell you that I am cracking up at your mind my friend. Carrie how was this conceived? This was very creative. I am seeing one of those animation shows that my kids watch and these flowers talking away. Now I feel like I am losing my mind..lol..great piece..enjoyed it very much.
