Congratulations to Lois, aka Clownmom! Lois has been crowned our 54th Queen For The Day. Lois has a gallery that is a virtual treasure trove of inspiration... 2,301 uploads in five years. That's an average of 460 cards a year! Her very last upload was this morning, when she cased herself as a thank you to everyone who has cased and left comments on her cards. Lois, you are truly deserving of the crown! It was hard to pick, but I finally chose Full Brick Wall to case. I kept Lois' brick wall theme, but took the easy way and used an embossing folder instead of cutting and sponging each brick. Image was colored with Copics, embossed and sponged with TH Vintage Photo ink. The pearls were colored with Copics to match.
Congratulations Lois... hope you enjoy your well-deserved reign!

You are prompting me to break out the TH brick wall and get busy!! this turned out fantastic and I love the flowers climbing the wall!! the border and piercing across the bottom give it added interest, and the colored pearls are the cherry on top!! Thanks for the inspiration. I need to practice how to ink up the folders!!
