There's a fabulous new game to check out here where one stamper is crowned Queen For The Day each weekend. Every HRH (Her Royal Highness) is selected because she consistently leaves comments and gives encouragement to other stampers, and regularly participates in some of the daily challenges.
What a great way to honour those who take so much time and thought to encourage us, and who help to make SCS such a warm, friendly, and inspiring place!
This weekend it was the wonderful Peggy (aka marilynprestonn) - I'm a bit late with my card, but I'm sure you won't mind wearing your crown for a bit longer, Peggy!
I chose this gorgeous, happy card to CASE. The flowers are a bit different and I changed the gingham to blue because it's her favourite colour! I also made a longer card because my flowers were quite big!
Hope you enjoyed/are still enjoying your much deserved reign, Your Royal Highness, Queen Peggy! (I am curtseying, as we're good at that in Brit-land!)

Sally, what a sweet way to honor Peggy and I love your digi gingham dp. Lovely Spring flowers (as it snows here...just a little). I'm really down south so we don't see a huge amount. I'd rather be seeing flowers like these blooming now, though. Very pretty card and I'm sure Peggy will love it.

Oh, Sally!! What a fantastic tribute card for the QUEEN! I just love those bright yellow flowers against the royal blue mat and gingham. It's really a stunning combo That extra-long shape is so cool, as well. Definitely fit for royalty--nicely done!!!

I really like royal blue and yellow together A LOT. This is so well done and is perfect for giving honor to the Queen for the Day! I'm going to check out that new game too. TFS
