Queen for a day...



OK.....time for a bit of quick play after all the heavy layer upon layer work of late.
The theme over on TMTA is 'Queen for a day' and so I had a play around with what was on my desk with some leftovers etc. The shell stamp is meant to represent a royal crown or head dress, or even something like the queen wore in Alice in Wonderland,....but the more I look at it it reminds me of Hair from The Hairbear Bunch heehee.......'Help help here come the bears' lol
Anyway...had a go, and had a chuckle in the process. Great theme.

I love all the toning 'leftovers' - and that stamp - you have such a wonderful variety.

How on earth you fit so much onto such a tiny area.

Where do you find your fabulous images - and those rosebuds and ribbons.

Oh my - I wish you did workshops and lived nearer - I have so much to learn!

Thank you for taking the time and trouble to leave a comment on my blog. It was very much appreciated.
