For this week's Queen Carole (ckbythesea). Trish asked me to be Guest Designer, and I was so excited to say, Yes! I love your delightful gallery, Carole, and I chose this awesome card to case: Cajun Saffron Artichoke (Pear)! by ckbythesea at Splitcoaststampers I kept pretty close to the same layout, but I used Tangerine Tango and artichoke dp for the 1st layer. Stamped the pear in Stazon Black and colored with an aqua painter. I sponged around each of the dp's and orange layer in their respective colors. Added dot ef and scalloped border punch to the orange layer. This also qualifies for today's WT: to sponge Enjoy your royal week, Carole! Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta
