To-day I am honouring Queen Jo (Reddyisco). She has an absolutely gorgeous gallery it was a hard job to decide. I have been trying to use more of my old sets and when I saw this lovely card in Jo's gallery it reminded me of Roses in Winter. DSCN6056_by_Reddyisco by Reddyisco at Splitcoaststampers Something about the colours and the collaged flowers attracted me. I have also been fascinated by the newsletter tutorial 'Bordered Sentiments' ..well okay consumed ..maybe obsessed is the correct word. The other day I saw this card from lisacurcio Make It Monday - Week 17 Braided Card VIDEO by lisacurcio2001 at Splitcoaststampers and thought I would incorporate that technique too..(not a lot going on in my little world lately)! LOL Have a great week Jo and all the other Queens being honoured this week.

Very lovely card. It is always motivating to see one of my favorite retired sets being featured on a card. I may have to dig that one up and give it a little love today.
