What an awesome challenge today!! I'm definitely going to be doing more of these today!! However...
...as I tried to stick as close to the original card as possible, found on p. 40, it turns out I SUCK at paper piercing!!! lol! I started doing the piercing up in one corner and it ended up looking absolutely horrid! 'What will cover up THIS mess', I thought to myself! I decided on the photo corners, which really don't look that great, plus they go WAAY outside the original card!! This should have been a fairly simple challenge, right? Not so much for me!
You can be sure the next card I CASE from the Catty will NOT have piercing on it!! How do you all do it! Do you have templates? Rulers? Please share your secret!!!!
Anyhoo, I had already taken the photo when I noticed AM(ambouth) mentioned Shelly (papermoon04) threw in an additional challenge of finding a place to put a crown! And I didn't feel like re doing it, so my little snail will remain un-Regal...for now!!
Thanks for such a great challenge today, Jen!!
Thanks for reading my babble and looking at my card!!!

That Shelly is obsessed with crowns isn't she! SU Matt Pack, that's the ticket for piercing! I still have *issues* but not as bad if I didn't use it! Yikes!
This little card is so wonderful, love the corners, how the main panel is hanging from the ribbon and you picked wonderful colors! Just love it.. Great job!
