All Hail to Izzy, Queen for the Week (well, it does last a week so I still think it is miss-named). Izzy as us Punchkateers call her, has the greatest cards. I love to case her, so I was thrilled to get to do it in an official tribute to her tireless creativity and encouragement. I cased this beautiful card:
I think she called it Fresh Cut Sympathy, but then it has been over 10 minutes since I copied the link and my mind ain't what it use to be.....
I kept the purple which was so pretty and I kept the layout, but I tore my main image, added a prima flower, and added some sparkle, silver, and bling.
I am so glad that I could still make a regular shaped card - I was beginning to think I was stuck on shaped Easel cards. Heather is such an inspiration that she helped me break through it (kind of like that butterfly breaking through my main image except I look a mess this morning and it is all pretty and silver and sparkly).
Congrats Izzy - you will most likely have to make your own crown because I am pretty darn sure that Fruitcake is not ever going to get that thing off her head! Let me know how that goes...
PT: two punches used 7 times (plus some on the inside).

Oh Nutzi! It's simply fabulous!!! I love what you've done here! All that punching (RYPH), the gorgeous flower, the butterfly - a real beauty indeed. Thanks for the sweet compliments - so kind of you. Yes, it took a while for Peggy to get the crown from Pamzi. Rumour has it the Fruitflake has been sniffing craft glue and is having hallucinations. The crown is a bit over-sized now since she stretched it with her big ol' swollen head. Then she picked all the jewels out of it. But it's still a great crown. And what a fun week it has been going through the gallery. Thanks so much for taking the time to CASE one of my cards. It has taken me ages to get through the gallery as I've had to read every comment on all of the cards! But what fun it has been. Your card is a treat to the eyes!
