Just squeeking in at Oh Alice! today. An unforseen interruption in my crafting plans led to this rather hastily put together card. The challenge is to choose between the Red or White Queen's Court. Red being my favorite color, the choice was obvious. Had I had my wits about me (or wanted to keep them, I might have chosen differently. LOL) The quirky image is another from the Octopode Factory. (Love her 'do and the way her crown is permanently embedded in her skull!). Her scepter has gone missing amongst the thousands of scraps and other crap on my table. The red lace doily is a die from the Scrapping Cottage. It didn't show up against the red background, embossed with a 5x7 Cuttlebug Folder that was part of the Valentine bundle (from last year?) so I added a gold foil doily that was laying on my table which led to the other gold embellies that were also not part of the original plan.
The playing card is from a Stampin'Up set and the sentiment is done with my Dymo Caption Maker. Sorry no links to the stuff today. I gotta get this in and it's past Happy Hour.
