Hilda! How fun! Kudos to you for being chosen Queen. I have thoroughly enjoyed meandering through your gallery. I finally picked this card because of the pounded flower challenge.
I have had this pounded lily sitting on my counter since that challange as after I had uploaded I went out and tried a few more. I was very happy with the lily so I kept it around. It makes a wonderful throne for a Queen.
Orange CS is Bo Bunny, ribbon is from KMart, fairy and sentiment are Victorine Originals. Enjoy your reign.

Carol this is a beauty. I really enjoyed doing that pounded flower tech myself. YOur lillies turned out beautifully. So glad you kept them around b/c they made a perfect case to honor the Queen. Way to go G/F.

OMG... I LOVE how your pounded lilly turned out! That is the best example I've seen of the pounded flower technique! And what a perfect resting spot for your sweet little fairy. What a sweet, sweet card!
Thanks, Carol, for making my reign as queen so much fun.
