As I was sitting having my morning cup of tea and having a quiet look at what had gone on in 'Cardville' while I slept - the phone rang and who should be on the other end, but my dear friend Peggy (aka Marilyn Preston on SCS) calling all the way from Canada. What a lovely way to start the day!!
Even moreso because there is a fun game here on SCS called 'Queen for the Day' and stampers who encourage other stampers with their comments on SCS are being honoured - fittingly it is our very own Peggy this week - and I made this card in her honour...you can play along too just by casing eaggy and adding QFTD02 to KEYWORDS.
I used an image sent to me by the lovely Celisa on SCS - I saw one of her Emersons and commented on it, you know how much I LOVE these gals and Celisa offered to send me some more - and she did - I will be amusing myself with them FOREVA!! Thank you Celisa, you blessed me!!
I have also used the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge: http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/
the CAS sketch, I am so not a CAS person, although I love other peoples but I have to say these gal's with the 'atty-tude' just don't need too much more - now you may wonder if I am talking about the Emersons or the MMSC gals - LOL! I won't even go THERE!! LOL! Seriously girls, I am just joking!! I did case this card of Peggy's for MMSC45 - I changed everything but the sketch, but hey, the thought was there! LOL!
So Peggy, this card is in your honour - it is so perfect that you are Queen for a Day on SCS, you are such a gorgeous gal and have befriended so many of us, bringing sunshine into our lives and lighting up our world with your comments and all the love you give in so many ways! You have won your way into my home and are reffered to as 'Aunty Giggles', we all love you! Long may you reign my dear friend and TWISTED SISTER!!!
I just have to add that HRH Peggy ended our call with 'you may bow now!!' Oh Peggy - what can we say to that!!

Looky you, Linda. How regally fitting for queen Peggy. Couldn't have picked a more perfect image, IMO!! Fun and full of humour, just like the reigning lady. What a great sketch; you did a beautiful job putting this together. Have a good day, I'm off to have a good sleep...hopefully!!!

Okay...I'll give you that Peggy is QFTD, and what a WOW card to honor her with, but you totally OWN the Emerson Girls! I love what you have done here with this image! The added CROWN and the BLING! Just as Lovely as Lovely Linda!
I also have to add, that I love that your descriptions are so "newsy" as I talk a lot and I think we just may have this trait in common as well as our love of the Emerson Girls, LOL! PERFECT card befitting a QUEEN! Hope Peggy likes it as much as I do!

Well, well, well...if it isn't my cousin on my father's brother's cousin's side Emerson. I do love the beautiful and tricky sketch you used...The girls at MM had me working hard this week. I love that you took the time to case me...yeah, yeah, it's in the thought of course, but I agree with everyone that those gals remind me of you, anytime I see one in the gallery, now I need to check Celisa's gallery for them also. Gorgeous papers, divine chalking and the sentiment, fit for the day.
Linda, it was fun talking to you this evening, hope you have a beautiful day and keep on keeping on and maybe someday I will grow up to be just like you. Hugsxo
About the end of our conversation...you can get up now you silly girl! LOL
