Give Thanks



Hi Everyone!

Today I’m sharing my very first easel card.  I saw the Easel Card challenge over at Paper Playtime and I have really wanted to make one and I finally did. I really like the way it turned out and I’m actually  going to use it as a decoration for Thanksgiving. There are so many challenges for Fall, Fall Leaves and Fall colors that I am entering this in quite a few challenges. Hope you all have a great weekend!

    Shelly, your card is GORGEOUS. I love the leafy wreath, in such perfect colors, and the fact that you made it an easel card amps up the beauty even more. I love the sparkly ribbon and beautiful sewing, too. My gosh, you do such exquisite work. :o) Love it!

    Hugs and blessings!

    Shelly, your gorgeous card has really inspired me. I have GOT to make an easel card. I can't even estimate the amount of time that beautiful wreath took. Just a wonderful job!
