Made a set of six of this fun lil Elzybell card for my friend Cindie. These girls look so sweet to me and it is really fun to color. Main image is colored with Copics, and the designer paper panels are sewn onto the bg. Here is Beate's tutorial on easel cards (these instructions are very easy to follow.) Thanks to Beate!
Thanks for looking!

Pat, this is darling!! I love Elzybells images, and this one is a sweet one, especially with the little picket fence, lovely dp, and pine branches you've put together. What a fabulous easel card, the stitching adds such a special touch - wish I had somewhere to keep my sewing machine out for cards, it's stashed in a closet due to lack or room!

Pat,
This is so darn cute - love the DP, as it is perfect for the images and that little fence is darling. I made my first easel card tonight and you are right, it is quite easy thanks to Beate's instructions.

How sweet and whimsical! Splendid colors! The designer paper is perfect, and I love that you paired it with the picket fence border punch! Gorgeous stitching too! (It makes me want to take out the old sewing machine my mom gave me and practice a little more! lol)
