This week's Queen is the very lovely Robin (Stamperrobin) who makes the most amazingly beautiful cards, always so sweet & kind with her comments, & someone who I count as a dear SCS friend! This is the card I chose -
I kept the layout the same, changed the colour combo & image. I sponged around the image whilst still in the die and coloured the gumnuts using copics. I popped up the image ovals using dimensionals.
Enjoy your reign as Queen, Robin!!
TFL!

Beautiful case of Robin's card, Sue! The pretty die cut layers and colors are great. I'd never heard of gumnuts so I googled the flower ... very pretty and omgoodness, the flowers and buds are used in a lot of products. I learn something(s) new every day.

Your title got my attention, Sue! : ) Is this the tree that the kookaburra sits in?......in a song we all sang in Girl Scouts eons ago. Your card is beautiful with its lacy die cuts and expert coloring. A lovely card to honor your special friendship.
