I used Woodgrain and Fifth Ave Floral for my stacked background. I also distressed and used faux stitching. I tried to use lots of details to honour Queen Joan and her beautiful style!
I also used PINK for today's Ways to Use it Challenge.

And stacked up right fine too! I love this card. Your faux stitching and distressing really makes this stand out.

Oh my gosh, Trish! I looked at this one too, and got scared off, but you have done a super job with it- love your choice of stamp sets with those luscious blooms and label at the bottom - and you are in the pink for Oct's breast cancer theme too! Awesome!
