Congratulations to Queen Grace aka Scrappigramma. Hope you received the crown in due time to celebrate your day of honor!
Well, I am only a day behind all you gals this time!
Work has been a "bear" coming up on the holiday weekend, but I couldn't go to bed without paying due homage to our new Queen! I admit I was REALLY intimidated by this gallery, with all the nesties, fancy punching, dry embossing, etc - BIG cards! I finally found a gorgeous card which I very nearly totally cased EXACTLY, which you can see here: http://www#splitcoaststampers#com/ga...&ppuser=134563
I used Certainly Celery, and Whisper White, stamped the BG with Versamark, and the flowers in Black Stazon, so I could sponge them, and then misted them with Shimmery Champagne Paint mixed with some alcohol - don't know if you will be able to see this in the picture - my camera is acting up- I don't have nesties, but used my punches to do the popped up sentiment, and stampin dimensionals to pop up the flowers, with a strip of white satin ribbon, topped by some black ribbon I found in my stash. Hope you like it!

Like it? I love it, Susie Q! Such elegance in your design. Yes, Grace's gallery is more than intimidating but what you've created here is just wonderful. Great choice of colors/cutouts and ribbon. Such a pretty card, my friend.
