Here we are with another Queen for the Day Challenge! I have not had the pleasure of meeting Roxie, but when I went through her gallery....what a humbling experience it was! I am amazed at the contribution that Ms. Roxie has made to the Split Coast Community! Roxie, your cards are absolutely beautiful! I went through page after page of wonderful layouts and color combinations, extraordinary coloring techniques, and technically superior cards....what an imagination you have! You certainly deserve this wonderful honor and I am so happy for you! You most certainly DO NOT deserve what I did to one of your beautiful cards, but I think it is going to be a tradition with me and the QFTD challenges...at least for as long as I can think of another use for that stamp set....lol! So without further hesitation, I bring you my little contribution to the challenge. Congratulations, Roxie and my apologies!

Katie, I think Roxie will be tickled with your take on her card. I love how you REALLY personalized this card to honor Roxie. The "nest" is fantastic in its realism. So cute! Great job!!

How adorable! Good idea with the raffia and the 'must have' crown for Roxie. Love the wonderful colors you've used, too.

Katie - another darling chick card for the Queen - I was so hoping you would use chicks again - keep up the tradition. I love your sense of humor. The colors on this card are great and that crown over the hatching chick is perfect. We have baby ducks now -hatched last weekend and they look so cute swiming in the pond behind their mom or waddling behind her on the way back to our garage. Love your case of sweet Roxie!
