One of my favorite cards. This one is for my niece Audrey. I will be making one for myself that looks older. The perfect signicator for that female over-achiever in your life.

The Queen of Swords is independant, cautious, strong and intelligent but can also be intolerant and spiteful. The Queen of Swords has a keen mind and deals in action with intent. Her head rules her heart. Her unique ability to view both sides of a situation provides her with mental clarity. Her motivations are towards actions, and she will aggressively perserve towards her goals and beliefs. This is not always a good thing. My husband says trying to stop me once I have decided on a course of action is like trying to stop a bulldozer.

Queen of Swords II

This Queen of Swords was beaded by Bobbi Pennimen for a friend of hers. The darker mood is from the much darker sky in back of her. I will be including all these patterns and their palettes on the pattern cd that I hope to be offering here at the site by August.
