A Give-Away and a Magnolia Leaf

Give-AWAY:Tee at Empty Boxes was playing Pay if Forward, PIF, and I signed up. Above are the neat gifts she sent me. However, I had no one sign up here to continue the game, so I am changing the game. For the first three that sign up, I will send some "Texas" items. You don't have to send anything on to anyone. And for the fourth person, I will send a much loved copy of Home to Italy by Peter Pezzilli.
While in the Texas Hill Country, I found the leaf below. It was so interesting, I took several days drawing it. I wish I could tell you which sort of magnolia it is, but I don't know.

That's an incredible leaf! Beautiful job. I'll let you send those items to someone else, as postage over here would be too high...
