Finally managed to find a little 'stamping mojo' hiding in my "Rubber Room". I was starting to think it had 'jumped ship' when we were in Mexico. I love the QFTD challenge here on Splitcoast and have fallen way behind in making cards to honour our Queens - today I've actually managed to create two QFTD cards!
Last week our QFTD was fellow Punchkateer Nancy aka nwilliams6 aka Nutzi. She's a sweetheart and very accomplished cardmaker!
I had no problems deciding which card to CASE - I went into my Rubber Room and there was this wonderful birthday card Nancy had sent to me!
Kept her layout, changed the colours, the paper, made the sentiment layer a bit smaller. Instead the pearly swirl I sprayed shimmer paint mist and added dazzling diamonds and a butterfly. I am still sparkling! Used my MS hydrangea punches and pine branch punch for the flower in the corner.
Congrats on your reign as QFTD Nutzi!
