I made this card in honor of our newly crowned Queen For The Day, Darla Ryan. Darla's gallery is full of wonderful creations, many of which have landed in my favs!
I chose this beautiful Christmas card of Darla's to CASE: April '09 Christmas cards by Darla Ryan at Splitcoaststampers Ryan
I kept the colors and cardinal theme. I changed the cardinal and sentiment stamp, used DP for the entire background and embellished with pearls.
Excellent choice for Queen, Anne! I hope things are settling down for you.
Huge congratulations to you, Darla! Your gallery is outstanding! Enjoy your reign as Queen!
