    You are an amazingly talented artist and I am so thankful the You Tube path I took today led me to you. These tutorials are truly inspiring and I shall have huge pleasure trying, in the first instance, to produce some chiffon-encapsulated leaves. You make everything look so easy! Life has taught me the simplest art is unfailingly complex and generally the most difficult to create. I have not one iota of the talent you possess but your work here and on-line has taught me the most important thing is to enjoy one's art. Thanks to you dear Deborah, I know I am in for countless hours of fun and enjoyment and, who knows, maybe a modicum of success too. Bless you dear lady, I am so grateful. Marion, North Somerset, UK.
