Diamond Jubilee Crafts - Another Competition Card Entry

The other day, I showed you the Diamond Jubilee card that I intend to enter in a competition in one of the popular card making magazines, but I had some of the Papermania paper over and it seemed a waste not to use it, so I decided make another card using what was left and similar embellishments, but re-jig them to get a new design.
Diamond Jubilee card..
I’ve taken a section from my own design A4 Union Jack sheet to cover the front of the card and then have added a centre panel cut from the remaining Papermania paper, which I mat and layered on gold.  To add a little more patriotic colour, I’ve filled the stamp in red, washing over it with a water pen and adding three flat backed gems to the Queen’s crown.  The final touches have been made with  bunting, this time cut into triangles, the same wording using my old faithful Dymo label maker  and a die cut crown to top it all off.  Done and dusted!
