Why on earth would I case this complicated card of Pam's? It is because I gave her that butterfly/leaf adornment and what a beautiful card Pam made with it. Maybe if I had kept it, I could make a card that gorgeous. LOL MMSC73, Sparkly Gold Butterflies by pam124 at Splitcoaststampers
I changed the image but still have butterflies, flowers, and leaves. I am using a Martha Stewart stencil and chalked the butterflies and leaves on the focal image. Added different leaves and gemstones to the side of the panel. Yea! I got to use my crimper. My flowers are different on the bottom and top sides. I just had to add the crinkled ribbon.
Pam and I go back to a bird card I mailed her with some very skinny cut out legs. We had met over a comment she made on the card. Anyway, there was a lot of fun over the bird legs, and while we've never met in person, we have had a few wild and crazy phone conversations. She is truly a riot and a good, fun friend...and a Punchkateer Pal.
Now, we all know Pamzi loves her bling so I did my best to go all out with the sparkles and bling.
Have a wonderful week of being Queen. Just remember, you have to give the crown to someone else next week. Yes, we all know you are already royalty and a Princezzzzz. LOL
PT: Should have used more for this Punchkateer's card but I ended up with 2 punches and 1 die cut.

I think your bling was a good idea - she does love da bling. What a pretty card and how cool that you cased a card that was very meaningful to you both. You honored the Queen, Princess, Vice President very well my friend.
