This week's Queen is none other than the sweet Sandie! I was so excited to see her name as queen!!! A little while ago I had commented on one of Sandie's adorable owl cards, and she pm'd me and offered to send me some punched pieces! I was so thrilled and they came shortly before things started getting kind of crazy at our house with the holidays and the death of my DMIL, so I just now am getting around to thanking her, and I just sent a card and package out to her yesterday.... but I still had not had time to play with the owl pieces! So today, I got in to my craft room and got a few things done! Here is Sandie's adorable card I cased:
I made mine A2, used a different sentiment, and instead of pine boughs I decorated with a SB Cherry Blossom die set. My DD is in love with owls and is a bit down right now after losing her Grandma, so this is for her, also qualifying it for today's F4A203. I added stickles to the eye shimmers and the flower centers.
Thanks so much for looking, and thanks again Sandie!!! Congrats on your reign as queen! You ROCK and totally deserve this honor!!!

How adorable! Lucky for you that she gifted you some owl parts! You honored her well. I missed that one in Sandie's gallery! This will bring a smile to your DD.

I don't think anyone has risen as rapidly as Sandie in the challenge forums for being "one of us"....she's kind with her comments...plays all the time...she's just...well, limey, you know!
Your card, made with Sandie's gift, is just as precious as can be and your daughter is gonna love it and your thoughtfulness!
Have a Happy New Year, Grace!
