I didn't have time to make the Queen an elegant card on Teapot Tuesday, she wasn't impressed with her outhouse teapot that I took, so I am trying to get on her good side by making her this card. This also is for the TSC this week, to make an elegant card. I don't do well with elegant so this was a real challenge for me.
I saw this border on one of Becca's beautiful cards and loved it. You can see her card here: JustRite Birthday Wishes by Becca Stamps at Splitcoaststampers

These are royal colours indeed!! The Queen will be pleased with the purple - you know it is her colour!! I happen to know that she also loves a bright floral dress and thus I think Queen Elizabeth will likely ask to have a dress made up according to this lovely pattern that you have devised! Great card, Shirt!
