Medieval Princess Greeting Card

I have a new Card!  I loved working on this one but found it to be an interesting challenge.  It took several times going back to it and pondering what to do.  I had to follow a layout or sketch provided by priscillastyles for a weekly challenge.  Its the first time I worked within certain boundaries for a layout and I must say it put me to the test!!!

I got the graphic about a year ago by now from the Graphics Fairy.  I used it on a wedding shower card last year for my niece.  It actually resembles her.

 Here it is.  For some reason it is showing up a bit squished from top to bottom and my crystals and sparkly thread aren't sparkling. :(  Oh Well!  :)  I must upgrade from my iPhone camera to a better one if I'm going to post better pictures.
