On a visit to Mackinac Island, my mom and I jokingly claimed it as our own. I gave her a Mary Engelbreit title, The Queen of Everything and I was the Princess of Quite A Lot!! As time passed her title included my dad and they became the King & Queen of Everything!! I think they'll enjoy this card including these fancy wooden crowns. They were a challenge prize a few years ago from an Etsy shop called the Pork Chop Show!!
Because the crowns are so detailed, I kept the rest of the card pretty simple. I layered up some Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Borders 3 die cuts. The "happiness" sentiment is from Impression Obsession and the tiny "wishing you" is from Precious Remembrance Shop. I sprinkled on a little royal bling in the form of PPP Cranberry sequins (4mm & 6mm).
Be sure to check out what my teammates have to share, they are amazingly talented! I hope to see your card in our gallery this week. Be blessed and have a wonderful day! ~Lisa

What a fun card, Lisa! I know your parents will adore it! My sisters used to call me "Madame Queen" because, being the oldest, I bossed them around all the time.....
This is a wonderful card design. Love those crown embellishments, and the way you've got your three layer die cut. And, your story of being Queen and Princess is a good one. I'd like to be Queen of everything, and I just might rename myself.
