    Loved the Irish Blessing in the end there, Cuz! :) These flowers were really cool to look at. I would love to see them up close and personal- except for the Darth Vadar one and the one that looks like skulls. LOL! Thanks for sharing. So beautiful! Many hugs,

    <3 Katie

    Hi Cat, so beautiful pictures, they look like dancers and animals, too cute (not the skulls, though). I think the Irish blessing is wonderful, I know there are many different ones, and they have a lot of beauty in them. Thank you for sharing this.

    hugs
