Vera Lane's quirky images are a delight to color and are always good for a chuckle. They usually have tiny dots for eyes, but I love glamming them up with eyelids, lashes and colorful irises. This card is for my daughter who lives in Denmark where an actual queen reigns over her famously blissful kingdom. My inspiration today has a lovely picture, but more importantly a fascinating article about how coloring reduces stress and anxiety. Amen to that! https://gardencollage.com/heal/mind-...elp-you-relax/
