Hi! This is the card I did for our Queen for the Day and this week the spinner landed on Scrappigramma2 aka Grace!!! Wahoo!! I simply cannot believe you have not been FS yet!!! Your gallery is simply amazing and your talent is outstanding!!! And you are such a sweet person as well!!! I did not base my card on any particular card of yours Grace...your cards are so intricate I felt I would not come close to your expertise. So instead I did a card I thought you may like from what I have seen in your gallery. Look for it to arrive soon! I chose another Penny Black image and watercolored it. I matted and popped it up on a panel that had been embossed partly witha new SU Sizzix Folder. The word hello is from PTI and the butterfly on the inside and envelope is from HA. I also used a border punch from SU on the inside. Added my treasured tiny gems from Peggy and was done! Congrats Grace!!!!!!!!!!! Just know you have to wear that heavy crown all day!! I hope it does not give you a headache! LOL I am so glad we are honoring you today!! Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day everyone!! Hugs to you all!!

Love the embossing folder, love the image, love the fantastic colouring you've done, love the mini gems and that oh so sweet sentiment. What a wonderful card. Boy, do I wish that I could stumble on a basket of stamps that are as fabulous as the ones you've been playing with lately! Wonderful work.
