When I checked out the Queen for the Day challenge this morning and found my name and after the shock wore off, I thought "Oh my, I can't do the challenge today." (Can we all say at once -- addicted!) But I decided I could CASE myself and say thank you to anyone who has ever CASEd one of my cards or left a comment for me. So this card is for YOU!
The card I copied is this one. I used papers from a brand new DP pad I just got -- Prima Fairy Flora, and the stamps are from Mark's Finest Papers as is everything else on this card.

What a great layout to use (again!)
Beautiful layers!!! Great coloring of your image!
I feel a bit sad that I don't get to "play along" with this challenge too, because I make my cards ahead of time!
Fun of you to join in anyways! Have a great week!

Your card is so pretty Lois!! I love your sketch and the butterflies you used. What a sweet idea to make a card for all of us. You deserve to be queen as you are always making cards for everyone else and commenting too.
