But your blog is one of the few where I read every single word. You share so much good information in a way that is totally accessible. And this envelope is just so transformed. Thank you, Candy, for all the love you put into everything you make. On the photo technique...did you use a laser printer or ink jet? I've been told you can't do this transfer technique with ink jet images, so I'd love to know. thanks!Kathy/NorthCarolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09892137675636463450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5346260017800598364.post-31743201384413618352013-08-05T07:05:14.906-05:002013-08-05T07:05:14.906-05:00Oh...
