Thank you easel card

Easel cards are fun to make, thank you cards are always needed, so I had a working combination last evening.  I waited to take better pics in daylight since no matter how I set the white balance, nothing compares to natural light!

I love the way you "recycled" the scalloped die cut - what a great way to keep consistency in design! This card is lovely.
Thanks for dropping by my blog and leaving such an encouraging comment!

Hi Debbie,

I came to visit to view your "Playing in Paradise" card but woo hoo lucky for me you've posted several since and all are unique and beautiful and very inspiring.

I need to create after viewing so I must go haha!

Blessings to you this week, may God enable you to continue being creative.
