Our Teapot Tuesday Challenge is to make a card honoring Princess Diane's memory. When I thought Princess Diane, I thought of my Downton Abbey collection of dies and embossing folders made by Crafters Companion. I chose the Thistle Die and the Ornate Rectangle frame die. The other dies are Downton Abbey also. I thought the crown, bow, and perfume atomizer would be good princess icons or memories of the Princess Diane.
And since this card also will be my tickle to another teapoter, I added the friend sentiment from SU!
I also tried to use this week's colors with the added glitter paper white for the natural.
Thanks for looking.

We binge-watched Downton Abbey and love it, so I am surprised that there is a Downton Abbey collection of dies and efs! I really like the layered die-cuts, and the sentiment by Douglas Pagels is perfect for us teapotters!

Love the elegance! It's reminiscent of royalty. From the beautiful embossed BG and the ornate die cut over top with the beautiful silver trim to the perfect headline...fantastic.

You certainly capture all the regal elegance of Diane with your wonderful collection. Add me to the list of those who had no idea there was a Downtown Abbey collection. Using this week's colors were inspired -- purple being the color of royalty and all. And the use of the sparkling paper for die cuts -- perfection -- because they look jewel encrusted which is what I think every princess would own. But the crowning glory is your sentiment. Beautiful.
