This is for Queen for the Day #4 - Snail aka Linda. Congratulations Linda, you have a wonderful gallery and it was great fun to case you!
I selected Linda's marbled card here: FEB10VSNC Marbelous by snail at Splitcoaststampers. Like her, I didn't have any marbles, so I used fish gravel with Baja Breeze. Not quite so effective, but it did get ink on paper! I used Pocket Silhoettes in Choc Chip, sponged in Closed to Cocoa. Used the leftover piece of marbled (graveled?) paper for the butterflies and added pearls. The blue panel is bugged with the leaf folder.
Thanks for the challenge Ms Anne Ryan, Queen of Networking and Sweetness! And thanks for letting us case you, Linda!
Have a great day everyone!

Oooh, so lovely, Divine Ms. M. I love that CB panel and your flowers are gorgeous in brown. Just exquisite. I'm so happy you were able to celebrate Linda's gallery today. I trust she's equally as delighted to have you grace her very special day.

M, this is sooooo pretty. I absolutely love 'pocket silhouettes'. I also like your color combo. Baja Breeze is a fav of mine. I'm sure Linda loves this beauty.

I almost did this one myself and w/ this same stamp set! I love your beautiful version of Linda's pretty card. Your use of fish gravel was very interesting. It looks really nice, specially on the the flutterbys. Awesome case.
