Yes, it's Friday and it's time to announce this week's 50th QFTD. Please help me welcome Luv Flowers, aka Kim, as this week's 50th Queen at SCS. Congratulations, Kim.
Come and join the fun with our celebration of Kim as our newest queen. You can find all the details RIGHT HERE.
Kim, as you know, I'm fascinated by your craft skills so selecting just one of your cards was a daunting task; however, because your "Thank You' card had an asian flair, I decided to case your card found HERE.
I've flipped the design and because CAS style is somewhat difficult for me, I found myself adding a coin and mazuhiki cording.
Enjoy your very special week, Kim, as we come together as a team to congratulate you and the talents you consistently bring to the SCS gallery.
A special note of thanks to Bartonucci, aka Bev Barton, who just today sent me this wonderful Inkadinkado asian set. Of all my asian stamps, I do not have anything with a bamboo image. Thanks so much, Bartonucci. Bartonucci also sent me lots of these ancient asian coins. Wow, do you ever spoil me, Bevie! Thank you.
Hugs to my russian spy sisters!

This is so elegant. WOnderful image, and that red/stripe bg is wonderful - I really like how the stripes kind of reflect a bit of a pattern on the bamboo.

Oh, I love this bamboo image Anne!! You have a wonderful flare for making Asian cards, and I've always wished I could do them like you. Thank you so much for making me the queen this week. It really makes me feel special. Thank you for all of the work you put into this challenge. You are a really sweet and special person Anne. SCS is really blessed to have some one like you aboard its site. Thanks!! :>)

Oh My, what a gorgeous card Miss Anne. Love the red/black/sort of white combo. Super sexy! You sure do Asian well.
