Well, I finally made it - SO much going on right now, but at least its not quite Sunday - yet!!
I would like to congratulate Crystal on being selected as our Queen for the Day this week!! I loved looking through your gallery, and jumped right on this one as soon as I saw it. There were definitely a LOT more I fav-ed because your gallery is Tote-ally AWESOME, and the card I was inspired to CASE, called Totally Spring is right here: Tote-ally Spring! by crystalkbk at Splitcoaststampers
I am still challenged by the request to use Whimsy images, since I don't HAVE any - at least not presently, and although I did not use the Stampin Up Tote-ally Tess, I loved the layout for this card and wanted to ink up one of the new stamps I got last week at a stamp show!! Whimsy stamps were not at the show - sorry! Guess I will have to check them out online - SOON! Used some older DP from SU and some of my Mom's lace, a different clip and brought out the brown from the DP with my ribbon.
Enjoy your reign, Crystal and I look forward to CASing many more of your fabulous cards -true inspirations!!

Elegance! Sue, I smiled the minute I saw this, recognizing your Mom's treasures. How sweet that her influence still touches your art! Beautiful way to honor the Sweet Crystal! LYMI

OMGoodness, what a shock to see you use this image. Of all the female images I have, this is my most favorite one. It has always reminded me of a coat I made by Issey Miyaki. I love your coloring and some of your mom's stash too. What a drop dead card this is, my sweet friend.
