Twisted Easel Card

I made this twisted easel card for a card swap, which I can post on my blog now that I know it's been received.


I used snippets from a patterned paper pad from The Works.    The butterfly is a new die from the  Craft Addition 'Wings of Elegance' set, using the same patterned paper as I used on the base of the card,  The circles and scalloped circles are all Memory Box die cuts.  The sentiment is a stamp from the Happy Little Stampers 'Whimsical Friends' set, stamped with Versafine Clair 'Advocado'. 

I am joining in the following challenges:

  9. The papers are really pretty Liz and the twisted easel is a great shape, and I love the double layered scalloped circles with the pretty butterfly cut from the green and the body from the lovely yellow you used to layer and also for the 'Hello'. A beautiful summery card...sad to say it will only be with us for another month or so. x

  21. Your cards always have such a lovely clean and crisp quality that I really admire. it is a great skill. Thanks for your visit earlier and kind words about my fall. Sorry to hear that you did something similar. I hope you are all healed now with no lingering issues. Of course if you were left handed like me, you would almost certainly have broken the left one and not the right. It is frustrating how a split second can change your outlook for weeks. Have a great BH weekend xx
