Queen Ellaire

For this card I started with a watercolor wash for the background.  I used images from Scrolls Work -- stamped "Queen Ellaire" and the Garden Gate using a stamp positioner to make certain the Queen's hand was adjacent to the gate.  I masked the Queen and used the the top portion of the Large Bird NEST image for the ground cover.  I colored the Queen with alcohol pens, both Copic and Tria.  Now that it is scanned I will go back and add some gold glitter to her crown and a few other areas.
