Anne, you made a wonderful choice for the Queen today. Browsed through Snail's lovely gallery and found this beauty to case. IC221 Joannie's Costume by snail at Splitcoaststampers
Used same layout.
I added 2 more layers, a nestie, different image, and ribbon at the bottom. Paper pieced top of umbrella.
Used blue pearls from Pam124, Thanks, Pam
Linda, your gallery is gorgeous. Enjoy your time in the limelight.

Benzi, this is so darling! It's wonderfully colorful with that fun and funky dp and red umbrella! It's got all the right splashes to make someone grin from side to side. This is just too sweet~
