I can't believe I made a card for the QFTD challenge on the first day. What a miracle!
This week our queen is Jill, a/k/a quillister. A big welcome to the world of royalty. Remember to hide zee crown b/f next Friday or it will be stolen from you!!
I love to make quilt cards out of the top note die cut. One of my punchie friends has a b/day coming up next month and, guess what, she quilts. Of course, all the time spent making cards probably doesn't allow much time for the quilting now days. So, here you go my punchie Quiltzi friend. It will be coming to your town soooon.
I used SU Elegant Soiree DSP. I've been trying to use some of my DSP that just keeps hanging around. I've got so much, I'll never get through it all especially when I buy more.
I used the basic layout of Jill's card, but used different dp, left off faux stitching, added pearls, ef and a brad.
Thanks so much for taking time to look and I'll be back to the queen gallery to comment as soon as I can. Just wanted to get this uploaded.

OMGosh, this is so wonderful Fruitcake. Since DH is around more, I guess you're able to focus on your focusing. It really shows in this card. I could never make a quilt card ~ too precise and time consuming for me. I love the muted colors too. You did really great on this one!

That is awesome Pamzi. I love these quilt cards. They are just like a warm comforter. The blue is a beautiful tranquil color highlighted with the pretty pearls. It's a beautiful birthday card!

What a great idea to make a quilt card for that particular birthday girl. She's sure to love it. Love your big brad. Somehow, I can't keep my mind on this card for looking ahead to a ...uh, rather strange card I spied. You know the one. Bwaaaahaha
