A green queen for a day!!!

hey there,
well having been laid up with a nasty chest infection and stuff and not getting the planned holiday activities and visits to my parents and to London and being told to rest, hubbie has been on children duty and i have been sitting and sitting and the odd crafty potter!!! So here she is:

So today i made a tag to fit in with the stampman bingo challenge, which , yes , i have nearly missed and i would also like to enter it in a few other challenges.listed at end of post.
I started by embossing my tag with an alterations embossing folder, colouring with distress inks and then adding some silver craftynotions gleam, which i bought from The Artistic Stamper.

The sentiment and focal image are from wendy vecchi set..art it for a queen.I stamped the sentiment in archival black ink onto card coloured with distress inks.
The floral ribbon trim, which i cannot stop using at the moment is from crafty individuals and was coloured with distress inks...what would i do without these inks!?!

The domino, was coloured using alcohol inks and when dry the queen image stamped in black archival.

 Once dry i added some metal embellishments from ebay stash and some ribbon coloured with distress inks, a handmade flower from tattered floral die and some wings, again from ideaology.

I am entering this for the following competitions:
