The new Queen for the Day is Diane aka Charminglycreative. I love her work and all the beautiful dies she uses. I chose to case this card: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
I had the branch die but decided I would use this bird on a branch image instead. I tilted the image because I didn't cut it as I should have.
For framing, I cut two Spellbinders Labels 4 dies in the same size, sponged while still in the die, and placed the other die over the one with the image.
Instead of a punch for the back strip, I used jute.
Diane, have fun this week looking at all the cards cased in your honor.

I'd love to see this out my window instead of all this white stuff! I think your die cut is perfect on the angle and I love the bright green b/g strip. Wonderful card to honor our Queen.

Looks like spring has sprung here. That bird image is so pretty. Love how you put the die cut on an angle. That textured green band is so pretty. Love it.
