Good evening everyone. I finished this card earlier for our Queen for the Day Carroll Ann in honor of her day. She is one inspiring lady cardmaker friend. I just love her work. Simple and effective cardmaking, punch art too and yes, love is everywhere in her gallery of precious work. I used this oh so sweet Tiny Teacup card as inspiration for mine.
This Tall flowers cake from today's Inspiration challenge inspired the CRANBERRY FLOWER -fresh print" dp I used. Did some paper piecing for the Twisted sistah and Crafty Creations Challenge too.
I colored in this sweet Pure Innocence image the color of Corryn's skin because her cute little pigtails reminded me of what I used to do with her hair when I wasn't very good at braiding them. I learned through the years, but was never a master like her foster mom is!
Thank you for looking and thank God for foster moms, dads and families! Great choice for Queen again Trish!

Oh, Peggy!!! How awesome! I love that image and the paper piecing you did! Look at those borders!!! Two border punched strips, lace AND ribbon PLUS you stitched around the whole card!!! I'm so impressed!! I don't do stitching well. This is such a fabulous card, my friend! Thank you for honoring me and for using one of my cards as your inspiration for this lovely card!!

Aww, Peggy, just got back from VA, visiting some friends, and your sweet card just popped up looking for a comment - it is soooo good to see you here, and combining challenges too!!
This paper pieced cutie looks so adorable with her paper pieced bell bottomed pants, and like that was not enough, you added TWO borders, Lace, Ribbon, AND STITCHED up the whole card!! Girlfriend, you are on fire for both the TSC and a QFTD card to honor CarrollAnn for her coronation this week!!
Thanks for always doing a great job spreading your special brand of joy around~I am always tickled to see you!!
