Adding a flourish

It feels like ages since I was in a plain old, not a book but an ATC swap. This is one hosted by the marvelous Ness, and it's theme was Autumn Leaves flourishes or swirls. It was soooo difficult for me to use a flourish *NOT*! All I had to do was pull out one stamp out of the three sets that I own (and that's just Autumn Leaves sets).

I recently received Sally Jean's book as a gift from my sister, and I wanted to incorporate glass and soldering and printed text. However, I'm scared to use glass (I cut myself with paper - imagine what I'd do to myself with glass!), and I've never used a soldering iron, so I had to improvise. It kind of lost it's Sally Jeanness along the way, but I'm still happy with it! What do you think?
