Ah, Queen for the day! My Colorado Sis, Connie Jo9 wore this crown, and I missed it! But when I got home, I had Connie's Soothing Colors card in my mailbox! Woot! You can't beat that, an IRL Queen card! Oh my, I could not believe how difficult it was to replicate this beauty, but I kept on it, needing a special card for my sis Julie in Kansas. Connie Jo, your work is amazing, and I was so tickled to see you honored in this place!
Your gallery is a delight, and your encouragement touches many hearts! (As Mutnik says, you leave the best-est comments, always over three words and all spelled correctly!) Connie, your heart is huge and I love how you come alongside others in need. Your friendship is a treasure, and I hope your reign as QFTD was a blessing.
I loved the card you sent to me, and hope Julie likes hers half as much I enjoy mine. Your cut flowers are remarkable! Thank you for all you share in this place sis, and remember- LYMI! Always, Buttnik xoxoxox

Your flowers look beautiful! Love the added stitching, dragon flys, ribbon and border! The dp is beautiful and the colors you used look fantastic!

Gorgeous card - such a lovely choice of colours -and I love your popped up flowers!! Oh my!! You've sewed on your card!!!! That's something I'll never be able to do. Threading a sewing machine is far beyond me!!!
Thanks for the comments. You know - shhhhh - I have not had to go to the shady side of town for a year or so now. overdue for a visit I suppose!! ;) But I have all the copics - just about - that I need!! I just ordered 4 copics cubbies from the US - each cubbie holds 120 copics. Does that tell you something . Shhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Right now I have them all sorted according to YR , BV, R , E, etc and put into SU see through plastic containers, and then those are all stacked into another big plastic box. Not easy to access them. So - I'm hoping the copic cubbies will work better - assuming I can find room to put them.................. ;)

I think CJ is missing in action this weekend. She's failed to get the crown on over to Lesley! Your card is lovely, no wait a minute, it's delish! Yes, that's what it is with all those warm colors and design. Wonderful card, Pat.

OH my goodness. You had better send this card with a warning - put pillow under jaw - her jaw will drop when she receives this one!!! Gorgeous colors and I love your cut out flowers and beautiful dp with the dragonflies and awesome white stitching. I cannot believe my card inspired this beautiful card.
thank you so much for participating in my QFTD week. I am late on every QFTD....just ask Annie Jo. I read above I was suppose to pass a crown....First, no breakfast with the honor, no money and now I have to somehow get a crown to someone. I think some instructions should come with this reign. Seriously, Thank you so much for making me feel so special. I have had a great week!!!!
hugs,
