Queen Card3

- Take a scrap piece of coordinating card and create a fancy edge using the border punch.

- Rub-on greeting ‘Its good to be Queen’.  I then added ‘…if just for a day.  Happy Birthday’ on the inside of the card.

- Assemble card.  I sewed a wonky double frame around the image.  The flowers were threaded with a small wired rose and attached with a sticky pad.  The little domed dots were added using sticky pads too.
