    Wow! Deine geheimnisvolle Grotten-Shadow-Box ist einmalig schön und beeindruckend, liebe Kerstin!
    Die Tropfsteine und die halb verborgenen Gesicht in der Felswand....ein sehr stimmungsvolles Projekt (das mich an eine wunderschöne Prag-Kurz-Reise erinnert *zwinker). Und die Ranke links oben ist einfach das Tüpfelchen auf dem i. Herrlich!

    Ich wünsche dir ein angenehmes Wochenende und gute Erholung!!!
    Bussi,

    Oh, Kerstin, you taught me something new today :) I looked up Palais Waldstein and-Cool!! It's amazing! Your interpretation of it in your shadowbox is stunning! I can completely see the inspiration of the Palais in this piece :) This also takes me to a gothic winter wonderland, too! Just an amazing creation through and through!! XOXO-Shari
