woo hoo.. Congratulations Susan (One4Joy) and being crowned this weeks Queen. You are so very deserving of this honor. Enjoy your reign - hope that Crown doesn't get to heavy.
I cased this fun card of Susans ripped from the pages of the latest
I kept a similar layout and theme. And used an old brawd on my card.
The image I used is from Bugaboo - Stella Sewing and the sentiment is from Stampin Up - Favorite Thoughts. How perfect was that sentiment for this fun Stella image.
I used this weeks technique - TLC310 - heat embossing on embossing. I dry embossed the red dp with large polkadot folder. Brayered versamark ink over the dots and applied red tinsel powder and heat embossed. I used this weeks sketch SC318 and the ways to use it challenge was to use hearts on your card. My red button is a heart. The Free 4 All (F4A50) - Almost Monochromatic - you may use white or vanilla cardstock, one nuetral - I used black and one other colour of cardstock - I used red.
I coloured the digital image with Tombow and Stampin up markers.

Ha, ha, ha!! Funny sentiment on a wonderful card! Love the way you created that glittery bg with the double embossing technique. The stitching is great too.

Fantastic card! Way to rock all those challenges!!! Your stitching on your cards is always so wonderful. I think your 'old brawd' is hilarious (as is the one on Susan's card!) and the sentiment couldn't be a better match. Lots of chuckles here!

Well that's quite the card, Pat! I guess I need to review that challenge of embossing dry embossing. That image is a killer. Fabulously fun card in honor of Ms. Susan.

Oh Pat, I remember that card you cased, it had me in stitches. WOW, you sure added your sens of humour to this one too. She is a funny lady indeed. Susan too. LOL
Awesome stitching and "accessorizing". TFS and honouring Queen Susan.xo

This card with Stella and that sentiment is outrageously cute, Pat!! I love the glittery heat embossing on the dry embossing! I'd be watching where Stella puts that needle staff though...
