Well I'll be darned if Roxie wasn't crowned queen this week. If anyone deserves royalty, it is her. The vast amount of creative sketches she prepares for SCS and her beautiful gallery add up to a queen I say.
So, Roxie, here's the card I cased from your gallery:
Since taking the Zindorf class sometime back, I always enjoy when I see a scenic card to case. That is why I chose this one Roxie.
I used somewhat of the same color scheme, but used a different stamp set, dp and embellishments.
I brayered and sponged the b/g of the image, then black embossed the images over it. I added glitter to the moon overhead just to get a little sparkle. Used hole punches I embossed behind the glimmery black brads placed in the centers.
I added a textured and punched border b/t the layers and some decorative leaves coming from the top of the image. Embossed a sentiment.
Thanks SO MUCH for taking a look and Roxie ENJOY your week of ROYALTY - it goes by so quickly.

Gasp! Talk about gorgeous. This is a masterpiece. I've missed you girl. Glad you are back and better than evah!
I think it's smart to limit yourself when our fun hobby starts to become less fun and more like work. I've had to pull back every now and then myself. Take care and thanks so much for the inspiration!

Lovely job on casing and on your Zindorf techniques. I've never taken her class - but love her online tutorials and have tired my hand at a few of her LOVELY cards.
