Over at the Byhandartist group, one of our lovely artists came up with the idea that we’d have a challenge with no commitment to sending. It has the theme of Queen of Hearts (hence the title of the post lol) Check out the challenge and entries here. Here is my entry for this challenge

queen+of+hearts+web

It’s about postcard size – I embossed Quietfire Diamond background on a paper of hydrangeas I had printed out long ago but the paper warped, I should have retried but had no more paper, should have flattened before finishing, but don’t think that fast! (shaking head at self) attached a collage image from Quietfire cut the Q♥ off a card and stuck them to the paper. Then I added some little puff blossoms that I received from a friend a long time ago and voila!!I  I love this image of the little girl with wings and thought she deserved to be a Queen for a day! It didn’t scan well due to the dimensionality of the flowers (is that a  word?)

Hope you like it!

    Mary-Beth, I am so glad I found this. Your “postcard” is beautiful and ephemeral.
