How fitting on the day of a royal wedding that QFTD is jdmommny AKA Anne, now Queen Anne? Doesn't that just sound regal? Anne is a very talented stamper and very generous in her comments. Of course, there is so much to love about Anne's gallery but I needed only to go to my favorites and chose one to CASE: F4A32 Holey Chickadee! by jdmommy at Splitcoaststampers
Stamped the pansy from Flourishes a year in flowers in Memento Tuxedo Black on Flourishes white CS and colored with Copics. Added some Twinkling H2O highlights and spritzed with periwinkle Radiant Rain. Cut the same Nestie window as Anne in a white card, then ran the card through through Swiss dots CBEF. Made and mounted the frame. Decorated a panel for the inside, then mounted the pansy image on the back of it. Applied the panel to the inside of the card with foam dots. Punched the branches, flowers and butterflies and applied with glue dots. Added the red pearl flower centers for you Anne. This card layered as it is also fits the Free for all Challenge today. PT - 22 including inside.
Congratulations Anne - enjoy your reign as Queen! Thank you so much for looking. Have a peaceful day.

Beautiful card. One of my favorite color combos. Your coloring is amazing. I like how you framed the image and your flowers on the corners are a great touch.

What a great CASE, Marie! I like the one you chose, and you did it justice. I need to remember the 'frame' technique more often. It makes such an interesting card, especially with those beautiful pansies peeking through.
