QFTD44 ... and the winner is ....

[marilynprestonn]

Listen up everybody, it's that time again...yes, we are all gathered awaiting anxiously for tonight's revealing of the New Queen for the day. Bob is still in make-up, while I am trying to get everybody in check. There are a few ladies singing some old Cindy Lauper song. Can you hear them? "Girls just wanna have fun" I wish he would come out and help me calm the scene. "OH B-O-O-O-O-O-O-B!, you look marvelous, now come on down, you're...ooooops that's another story. Omygosh someone fell while trying the limbo rock. These girls!

Okay, I will quit stalling, get ready and give a big hand of applause to Pam (Pam124), our sweet darling Punchkateer stamper and fabulous cardmaking friend! BRAVO my dear, you will be having fun all week long as your reign over your crafting subjects. I think she is one sweet, talented, and yet, filled with mischief, sort of like someone I know () stamper friend and so dear to many of us. I will be making a card for you and posting it later on tonight sweetie.

Last week, Miss Pat (foxy67) thought she had me fooled because I didn't mention my driver going back for her crown. Guess I got you fooled huh Pat! Now Judi, we all love you and we would love to keep you as our forever Queen, but I do have to send someone to pick-up your crown tonight. Soooooo, Vince is being driven all the way from New-York just to see you again. Then, my driver will be heading for Virginia in the morning Pam, so you have time to get all nice and ready for the Crown.


Since I did mention that our sweet Pam is a Punchkateer, we could use any kind of punch on our cards to honour her.

So sorry, I will be adding it right away my dear. Welcome to the QFTD, what a pleasure to have new faces and styles of cardmaking, and of course another gal to fall in love with. Because you know, I love everyone here, I loved you even when there was only the promise of you... (I'm sounding like Jerry McGuire now, I borrowed his line.

It's early here, 5:30 and I get so weird at that time. I hear alot of you saying. "Well, the day Peggy gets serious, then we will need to worry. " That sums it up about me.

Have fun Connie, this is what it's meant to be.

[MelodyGal]

Great choice, Peggy! I can't play until tomorrow but wanted to congratulate Pam. She is a terrific SCS friend, great stamper and card maker. Congratulations, Pam!!!

[jovialjudi]

Congrats Pam our oh so deserving Queen! I am in the throws of getting ready for Vincent`s arrival. Ya know....you would think they would come up with a crown for each of us so we didn`t have to relinquish ours at the end of the week. Guess its the economy...eh? By the way Pam...the driver will be coming to deliver your crown. Vincent stays with me. BWAHAAAAAA!!!
I have been through your gallery and the cards are all so gorgeous I have not picked one out quite yet. But I will!! I first have to clean my craft room up a bit....so I can fit through the door!! LOL Wow! How does that happen to a room?? And so fast? I think our hostess snuck in my house in the middle of the night and was pulling things out! LOL ( I actually wish she had been here!! One day, right Peggy?)
Ok back to our Queen. Love your style Pam and all the inspiration, love, and fun you contribute to SCS. Knowing this makes it easier to give up the crown!! Hugs and CONGRATS!!

[allee's]

Long live Queen Pam! Congratulations, girl! Enjoy your reign on the royal throne!

Here is the card I have created in your honor:

[pam124]

Sorry fellow stampers, I just found out I was selected ZEE QUEEN this week. Oh, my goodness, from Princess to Queen - however will I manage? My Mother will be so proud of me as she is British. I'm sure my face will be posted as the Queen Mother for the upcoming nuptials of William and Catherine. I'm so used to being a "royal" pain in the ..., that I'm sure this will be a piece of cake!! LOL! Who says a Fruitcake can't be a Queen once in awhile? Hey, Judi, you best be getting my royal crown to me ASAP so I can replace my princess crown. BTW, it may be the end of QFTD after me as I refuse to give up my crown!!! LOL!!

Seriously though, I am so honored and feel bad as, due to family and health issues, I haven't been able to play many challenges as of late. So, I hope the Queens selected on the weeks I couldn't play will forgive me lest I send out my Royal Army!!!

I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. It should be tons of fun. Now, don't go makin' my cards look sad compared with yours, okay? Keep in mind The Tower of London where there were beheadings! Gosh, I'm horrible.

And, Benzi, I will encourage everyone to follow my FAKE blog called Fruitcakez Zecretz. It's where I keep secret notes on the stampers here and upload cards using part of cards I've been sent. JUST KIDDING, even I'm not that low!!

Okay, I'm done funnin' around. Use them punchez and someone send me another COWBOY to toy with!!

Hugs and Thanks!

OMG, I guess I said too much in my earlier post about the Fruitcakez's royalty and your secret blog. Hope I don't get a nasty phone call. LOL

[Blooms in a Box]

Queen Fruitcake!!! Oh yes!!!! I am sooo "in"! Hmmm...what to do, what to do. Maybe WWW? Naw...he's in the closet. (probably with Faith, ya know?) How sweet this is Pamzi girl! I am so happy for you to be on the throne! (lol, loved that!) See you soon my friend! Hugz......

Psst...anyone seen my puchez?

[pam124]

Sorry if I'm late commenting, but I am in the process of putting all stampers who play on the list for the upcoming royal wedding. I shall make sure gold trimmed invitations are sent to you all!

[Isaiah40:31]

I see that my "Original Punch Pal Pamzi" (aka Da Fruitflake - I know some call her "Fruitcake", but to me she's always been a Flake) has been upgraded from her self-proclaimed Princess status to Queen!!!! Ay yi yi! We'll never hear the end of this!!! Yikes. No time to create and upload today as we're off to the bright lights of the city but once I'm home, you can bet I'll be punchin' something purdy in honour of my Flaky Pal Pam. Maybe I'll have to shop for a new punch while I'm in the city!! What an opportunity! Hugs Pam! Congrats - I'll get on this ASAP!! How's about you wave your royal wand and conjure up some new punches for me, eh!

[carol_PA925]

Congratulations and high fives to Pam124, our newest QFTD! Pam is so worthy of wearing the crown for always leaving the nicest comments AND she makes some GORGEOUS cards too! I found this classic beauty in her gallery and created this card in her honor.
Enjoy your week Pam!

And I'll be stalking the mailbox for my gold-encrusted royal invitation too Pam

[ctorina]

Congratulations Queen Pamzi! I can't wait to case your gallery and punch up a card for you! Enjoy your reign as queen!

[snail]

congratulations, pam! i hope to get a card made on the weekend that you will give your royal seal of approval to.

[jdmommy]

Congratulations Pam! Here's my card casing yours: Time for Pam!

[foxy67]

Oh!! Pam! I am soooo excited that you got picked QFTD..I just hope that my card will do your's justice..Your cards are always so beautiful. And I have your card on my desk in my card room that you made me in honor of my mother, and I have complements on it by every one who comes in my card room.
OK, now to go through your gallery and see what kind of damage I can do....If your card comes late it will eventually get there....I still haven't sent out Judi's Queen card...and it's done too.....It's sooooooooo cold outside too....and I have a sister that's flying to COLORADO Sunday too...Her daughter is having cancer Surgery Monday.... Can I ask you ladies to say a prayer for them...Thanks...

[foxy67]

Oh!! Peggy..I'm so glad you remembered to pick up the crown from Judi to be delivered to Pam...I realize your age thing is starting to take affect....

[101Airborne]

Pam, hugs and congratulations to you! Here is my card in your honor. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it in your honor. Enjoy your reign and everyone's cards!
