Hi! This is the card I did for our Queen for the Day and this week the spinner landed on Scrappigramma2 aka Grace!!! Wahoo!! I simply cannot believe you have not been FS yet!!! Your gallery is simply amazing and your talent is outstanding!!! And you are such a sweet person as well!!! I did not base my card on any particular card of yours Grace...your cards are so intricate I felt I would not come close to your expertise. So instead I did a card I thought you may like from what I have seen in your gallery. Look for it to arrive soon! I chose another Penny Black image and watercolored it. I matted and popped it up on a panel that had been embossed partly witha new SU Sizzix Folder. The word hello is from PTI and the butterfly on the inside and envelope is from HA. I also used a border punch from SU on the inside. Added my treasured tiny gems from Peggy and was done! Congrats Grace!!!!!!!!!!! Just know you have to wear that heavy crown all day!! I hope it does not give you a headache! LOL I am so glad we are honoring you today!! Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day everyone!! Hugs to you all!!

You may not have cased one of Grace's cards but this is a beauty to honor her, just the same. I am sure she will be very pleased to have it.

I will keep looking for those gems on your cards now, so I better getta huntin' for more. LOL I really love those Penny Black images you are dishing out by the dozen girlfriend. WOW. I think it's nice that you honoured Grace with a country style image with flowers and a natural look. I know Grace will go for that! TFS Have fun with the kids now!

This is just an incredible card! I love every little detail and your coloring is spot on!! I just ordered that same Sizzix embossing plate and I can't hardly wait to get it now! You've really given Queen Grace a lovely tribute with this card!
