I was out of town all weekend with no internet access, so I am late participating in QFTD11 and IC234. Thanks for the challenges Anne Ryan and Stef! Congratulations, Grace! Your gallery is wonderful and I hope you enjoyed your reign as Queen this week!
The papers are shimmery Stardream Chiara. I bugged the back four panels, colored the image with markers and Copics, added beads to the flowers and pearls to the corners.
This is for a special gal's birthday, so I hope she likes it.
Hope you like it, too, and thanks for looking!

You have no worries, M. I am sure Grace loves this beautiful card and so will the recipient. Your bugged panels are so pretty, as is the image. It is gorgeous!

Wow, as if Grace's card wasn't beautiful enough, you've gone and created another beauty to honor her!! M, this is so, so beautiful! The soft "feel" of the card, the embossed frame and beautifully colored flowers bring this all together to be one fine case to honor Grace as QFTD!! TFS!!

Wow, what a unique idea - to use the cuttlebug for the 4 back panels, then to top it off with such a spectacular coloring job on those blossoms - love how you combined the pink with purple - just masterful (is that a word?) Def going into my favorites!!! Great job to bring before the Queen!

I'm just delighted that for once I'm not last to the queen's coronation! This is beautiful - this is currently my favorite 'new to me' set. Love the layout you've used - such a pretty card!
