There's something Peter Pan-ish about that hat! That green dress with white and pink butterfly print is so lovely! Wonder what it looks like with the jacket. Those purses are really special too.

Yes, I would agree, it does have a certain Peter Pan flair!

I really enjoyed seeing this little flutterbye feature! I was in a crabby mood and it made me feel a lot better. I guess you can't be grumpy looking at butterflies.

I am glad that it perked you up! -Lulu
