Let's be Royal


A Royal Challenge has been decreed for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! 
Every Paper Princess is in need of a crown, so I created mine with paper flowers.
I normally don't make flowers. I leave that to Emma and Anna-Karin. I love their luscious flowers! But when I got the Maggie Holmes Confetti die, I discovered that I like making flowers too. Funky Flowers!

Creating an entire garden was easy because the die set has a lot of fun pieces to mix and match. I added some pen scribbles to the blooms for added artistic flair. And I'd like to thank my crafty friend, Kimberly for giving me the courage to leave my own marks. :) Blog friends are the BEST!

The wand in the first photo? Every Queen must have a scepter! This wand was from a previous challenge that I did for Simon Says Stamp. You can see more of them at Making Magic Happen.

Rule the Royal Challenge! Link your Royal project to the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog and your project could win a $50 gift voucher to Simon Says Stamp. We draw a new winner each week. Your project could also be chosen to be featured in our weekly designer spotlight.

    So clever, Michelle, and as usual, I'm drawn to your retro vibe. The flowers have such a great stylized look that reminded me of fabric from the 40's and 50's. And you always give just the perfect amount of glitter to your creations. LOVE THIS!
