Hooray!  I have more cattails today.  Oh, I love these.  Let me tell you that I have been fascinated with cattails since I was a young girl.  My mother had some dried cattails and I used to love to touch those forbidden things.  I can touch these cattails all day long and not risk the upset of my mother!  I imitated the fuzzy texture of my mother's cattails with the strands of burlap twine. 

 

Maybe I will send this to my sister and see if she remembers Mom's cattails and ask if you touched them secretly too.

 

Don't forget to head over to Sue's blog and see what style of card she is making for this release.  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop.
