Queen Lydia CASE

Photo Details

Poster: mamaxsix

Lydia/aka Understandblue is our Queen for the day and I just had to CASE another of her cards. I loved the bright colors on the Crumb Cake bg in this one CTD172 Someone To Watch Over Me by Understandblue at Splitcoaststampers (though I missed writing down one color and ended up adding white as it seemed to be missing something ;) I used buttons instead of hearts, added some faux stitching to go with the sewing theme, moved my twine up just a bit and used a safety pin and dimensionals to pop some tiny tage and also popped the main sentiment tag.
