This week's Queen is SaintsRule (Lori) and she has a gorgeous gallery and so many of her cards share her deep faith and are truly inspiring! This is the card I decided to case: NCC ~ Something Marvelous ~ by saintsrule at Splitcoaststampers
I purchased this 12 inch die cut of birds on a looooong branch a while ago and have used snips of it for this and that (just used on MIX21) and now have come to the end of the branch. Since Lori has silhouetted birds, I thought it would be a fine way to finish it up
I LOVE Lori's floral spray on her very pretty card, but since the branch was so large, I decided to forgo the flourishes. Also, instead of clouds, I folded a doily to use as an accent. I had put my card all together before even thinking of a snetiment....not sure how well this works, but I did want to use that pretty DP
Lori, your gallery is fantastic!!! Thank you for inspiring all of us! I hope you have a wonderful week as Queen!!!

I just want to say your doily (which gives the "feeling" of a cloud) is BRILLIANT!! Your design skills are exquisite! It took me the LONGEST time to figure out I could use portions of a die (I am a very slow learner) but now I look at dies a whole new way...The more times I look at this card the more I am in awe of your execution of the case of Queen Lori's card!!!

Wow! This looks like a beautiful bouquet of flowers to the side, and a pretty sweet flowery dp to add to the flower power fun! Love the silhouette in black; such a happy card~
