Just had to come back and CASE another card from Queen Lois' gallery. This time I picked Spotlight Yellow Carnation. Since my hydrangea was already colored, I didn't do the spotlight technique, but kept the flower, butterfly and birthday theme. Sponged the edges of the image panel with Broken China and Faded Jeans distress ink. The butterfly was embossed on DP with Iridescent Ice, sponged and cut out.
Congrats again Lois... and wear that crown proudly!

Wow this is gorgeous. This is one of the prettiest cards I've seen done with this stamp. I have it but haven't inked it up yet. Your coloring on this is amazing. Simply elegant.

This is one regal card! Absolutely awesome! My mother's favorite color is blue -- she would just love it. Your coloring is perfection and the pretty little white bow is just the right touch! Thanks so much for honoring me with this beautiful card.
