Okay, forgive me if this uploads twice, but the first one disappeared.
Congratulations, Ms. Anne of Ryan, Queen of Networking and Sweetness! Anne's Queen for the Day Challenge is an official weekly SCS Challenge every Friday. Wahoo!
I attempted to CASE Anne's creations and was lucky enough to be able to use some wonderful treasures that Anne has sent to me.
The main image panel was a gift from Anne and is embossed in gold. Anne also sent the fabulously ingenious feather trim and gold twine. I layered the feather trim over sheer gold ribbon and tied a button onto it with the gold twine. All layers are atop a dry embossed black panel and the card base is the very shimmery Gmund Treasury Shimmer cardstock.
Anne, I can't come close to casing your beautiful creations, but it was a labor of love with appreciation for all you do for so many! Congratulations, sweet girl!
Hope you like it and thanks to all who take a peek!

I'm speechless. Thank you so much, Divine Ms. M. Your card is wonderfully elegant and so sophisticated. You sure put that image to great use IMO. Thank you for your treasured kindness. Since these last 2 weeks have been difficult, this card is just what my spirit needed. Your work is superb!

M~ this is gorgeous! Love the gold panel and the ribbon-button treatment is awesome. I've been a little out of the loop and so I am so glad to hear about Anne's QFTD making it to the official SCS challenges. Hope you are doing well. {{{Hugs}}}

I recognised that image straight away from a lovely card Anne made - it's perfect for you too, with that butterfly veining. The feather trim, with the ribbon and button make the perfect accent - and I'd say you've succeeded pretty well in casing Anne - you've certainly captured her sense of style and great ribbon work to a T.
