ATC for 6 degrees

I made this little ATC for Lani's lesson  "looking for angels" over on 6 Degrees of Creativity on Ning. Lani asked us to make a portable piece of art (like an atc) with a "Duchenne smile."  This is a picture of my grandmother sitting in a field of daisies which was taken over a hundred years ago.


 (She is about 16 in the picture, and she passed away around age 60, roughly 60 years ago.)
The flowers were a gift from a swap I did recently, I put some stones in them and touched them up with glossy accents. Around the card is ball chain.  The banner reads "love begins with a smile" which is my spin on a quote from Mother Theresas,"Peace begins with a smile."
