Today Deborah, aka: debzi333 is being honored as Queen For The Day! ....again, WHOO HOO! She is so deserving of this special honor. Her comments are never "one or two" words. In fact sometimes they are sooooo long she has to comment twice to get it all in! hehe She is quite the story teller too! Plus, she can write in French! So to Deborah I say "Congrats" my friend. Enjoy you reign......the card.....
I chose to case this card. The layout is pretty close to hers. I used buttons instead of brads and my bow was made out of thin jute instead of ribbon.
This card also is for MotherMark's Teapot Tuesday 94 . The one about Seth, Sirus his dog and Larry the lighthouse keeper. Check it out.
I saw this stamp at another favorite craft store while my sister was here. That's right, we went shopping.....for stamps. Like we NEED more stamps. hehe I colored it with copics, sponged the edges with some new Distress Ink called rusty hinge.
Popped it up on a white card that I sponged the edges with the same ink and added some Graphic 45 paper that my sister pointed out to me at one of my favorite stores. I have always wondered where everyone got this paper and all along it was right under my nose! Thanks Sis for pointing it out to me. I now have quite a few sheets. hehe
I stamped and clear ep'd the dog, cut him out, popped him up and gave him a bow making this card qualify for Fridays F4A13 challenge, to use buttons and bows. I am trying to catch up since the wedding. hehe
Well, again....Deborah have fun today. Thanks all for stopping by, hope you like my card......TFL :0)
Hi Sis! Thanks again for your good eye!

You are starting to get the luck I have. I saw you make this card for the teapot challenge and hadn't even looked at debzi333's gallery and it works great honoring our newest queen. Your coloring is awesome, sis. great dp too......I was there when you bought LOTS of Graphic 45 paper!!! I guess I am a bad influence on you!!! Great idea for the buttons in the corners too. tfs.
hugs,
