A huge congrats to Lois, a/k/a clownmom, for being crown queen #54. Now that I think of it, I should have made a "clown" card, but don't have any clowns. So, I used this card to case:
Lois, when I saw the cameo, I knew I HAD to use this cameo I've had for a long time just waiting for the right card to use it on. I guess this one is it. The cameo was separate from the heart, so I glued them together on the nestie mats with gold pearls.
I changed the colors, ef, dp and added border punches and black lace.
Have a great time this week with your "clown", I mean "crown"!!!! You truly deserve it with your beautiful work and encouraging comments.
This fits the Dirty Dozen Challenge for the black tie affair.
PT: 5 #including inside# There's an arch lattice border on the 1st dp mat with the black lace underneath, but you can barely see it.

Oooh, how very ... very black tie-ish. Glad you could use your
cameo. It's rich and elegant and definitely the center piece.
You really stayed focus on this one, especially with all those punches. As hard as I tried, I couldnt find one thing wrong. It's all good.

Oh Fruitcake, I guess you could have put a "red" nose on that cameo lady and called her a clown. hehe BUT it just might have taken a little away from this very stunning card of yours. WOWZERS, you crazy lady, you have made one heck of a card here. Say, did you loose your shiny pebbles or are you into lacy ribbon for the photos now? hehe This is FAB-O big time. WOW! TFS :0)

Oh I knew this was your card as soon as I saw it pop up in the gallery. Gorgeous in black and white. I love the cameo and that heart is beautiful. I love the embossing folders you've used and that pretty black lace.
