A Dated Journey - Sneak Peek #3

You've seen these babies before, but they're so gorgeous I had to base our first kit around them:

A deep red petal with music note leaves -- everything has been distressed -- I know I was a little vague on the details and quantity of goods you've seen so far, because I want it to wow you :) -- but yes you WILL receive a full set of these, one large, one medium and one small red flower :)
