Thanks to Pat Smethers and the very easy to follow instructions of Beate, I made my first easel card tonight - and it was quite simple. I think I should have made it stand a bit more upright, but all in all it's okay. I know I'll be doing more of them - since they are so easy. Another Christmas card for my stash. Hope you like it and thanks so much for looking. My blog.

Kathy...what an awesome job. I have been too nervous to make one of these. I am afraid I will mess it up and get frustrated. However, you make it look absouley awesome!!! Your wreath is just stunning. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

Wow, this is super gorgeous. Lots of wonderful details and beautiful coloring. Once you do your first one, you know it's not that intimidating. Way to go.
