Happy Monday Friends !
I thought I would show you my Glitter Queens ( Downline) cards I made for them last quarter .
I used My Digital Studio . I used Pink Pirouette background color with the decorative border from Love Birds . The Flowers are from the Petal Pizzazz set. and added a So Saffron brad to the ceter of the flowers .
Here is what the inside looks like . I carried the front of the card into the inside to bring it all together.
I think I may have used the Opacity control a little to much for the inside greeting with the Define your Life Stamp HAPPY .
Have a Marvelous Monday and thanks so much for peeking in today.
Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Now mind you I had made a double post on that day ( March 1st ) since I got my pre order from the new SU! Ocassions Mini and made THIS CARD for my 1st post that day with the 2nd post that day about my scissor charms with her email I really thought it was going to be the poly twill chocolate ribbon , Never even crossed my mind that it could or would be the craft and paper scissors OMG!.. But once I opened her gift, Tears started flowing since I knew more about what her email was saying then when I actually got her email, and I had to hurry and tell her those scissors were my moms & that I just borrowed them for the photo I was taking with my scissor charms .. WOWZIE what a double fold blessing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Patty ~ AKA Stampin Rock Star ! WOWZIE what a surprise huh girls ? Since I didn't get a winner from the comments about the correct surprise I received from Patty I figured I would give my card (That will be posted tomorrow ) to the one gal that posted exactly what I thought it would have been and that is ...
Drum roll please ....
