First was in honor of Queen Mary (aka stampercamper). Mary has a wonderful gallery, and I had a very hard time making up my mind which card I wanted to case. That being said, this is the card I am casing:
I changed the image, the colors, and the papers. The image is from Flourishes and colored with Copics.
The second challenge is for today's Free 4 All using scraps of paper. All paper I used are scraps left over from previous cards. I thought the floral scrap went well with the image.
I am going to send this card later this summer to a "teacher" friend of mine wishing her well in her next year of teaching.
Thanks so much for taking a closer look - hope you like it

A beautiful card...and CASE of Mary's, Barb. I'm sure she will be pleased with how you honored her. Lovely coloring, as always, of your books and daisies in the jar. The DP goes perfectly and the bg beige has such a great texture.
