This card is for three challenges. First, this is to honor Kittie as Queen for the Day (QFTD175 - chose a previous Queen with initials J through L). I love Kittie's gorgeous scene cards that she creates. The attention to detail is second to none! And I love her beautiful flowers that she creates and have learned so much from her. I didn't CASE a particular card, but instead, tried to capture her style.
This is also for two of the Dare To Get Dirty Challenges (DTGD13summerthyme64 and DTGD13frenziedstamper). When I went to confirm I had the correct keyword, I saw that SummerThyme64's challenge said to keep it simple ... oops!! Hope this is OK.
Accessories: classic screen door and grand flower box dies (poppy stamps); grove branch die (memory box), pine branch dies (cheery lynn), red glitter balls ($1 store), sponges

OMG! I really shouldn't have looked till I got home -- I almost squealed out loud here at my desk (Nothing like a good squeal to advertise that you are NOT doing work things!)
This is amazing!

Loll, what a gorgeous, gorgeous card. I love every single detail, especially your pine, berries and branches. Thank you so much for making such a beautiful card in my honor. You especially made my day as I have had a hard week and weekend with my husband being ill and in the hospital. I just got home a little while ago and found your lovely PM. Thank you for writing and letting me know. You brightened my day more than you know.

The dimension you achieve with your dies and your sponging is amazing! And those flower pots are fabulous! This card is really something else! Into favorites it goes!

this is such a great card on so many levels...The grey door against the white bricks just pops! The touches of green & red pop against the other! Still it all looks so CAS - how did you manage that? Gorgeous. Thanks for playing along.
