Easel Card




Easel cards seem to be very popular now and this one was fun and super easy. I used Fleur Birdies R2037 and Tiny tidbits TA3146 for my images. I ran the dk. brown cardstock V235, which worked perfectly with this card, through my cuttlebug using an embossing folder. I am so... glad we will be carrying some embossing folders starting Feb. 1. I used the new technique featured in our escape out of the box using the mega and giga scallop square punches, stippling a bit of color then stamping my image in the white space. How easy is that - color without coloring. Love it!!! Added a bit of MS ribbon that I had, and a button I found in my mothers old button box and a card is finished. I am doing a funshop the end of the month and I think this will be one of our make-n-takes. What do you think???
