The newly crowned Queen is Kathleen aka Kathleen Lammie. I became acquainted with her several months ago and we discovered we lived about 1 1/2 hrs. from each other. She is a wonderful crafter and leaves the best comments on cards.
I wanted to make mine Christmas so you'll notice a difference but the sketch is pretty close to hers. I love using these peg stamps. You can make any design you wish, not just a wreath.
Kathleen, I hope you have a blast being the new Queen. You really deserve the crown.

Benzi, a fabulous CASE of Kathleen's card and I like how you did yours with the Tapestry stamps.....really a wonderful wreath. The surrounding shape really makes a lovely frame.

What a fun combination of things to create a wreath. I like that you made that "flower" die into a wreath!
Thanks so much for participating in the QFTD challenge!
