bio =

 My name is Francesca. I have been living in Rome, Italy for over 20 years. I work in a multinational company as a Delivery Manager, I am the mother of Princess Sofia and wife of Emanuele. I started making cards several years ago and I really enjoy doing it. My favorite style is CAS: I love to represent something using only a part of the card. In general, I like handmade.

This is her B for Birthday theme card project:
