I feel you pain, Irene, and you have a lot more than we do - the shoveling is certainly not affecting your mojo, my dear! That vanilla, black , and cherry cobbler is to die for - what a gorgeous pop to this card! Fantastic easel card - a real standout!!

THIS is one beautiful card. Love your soft take on the teapot colors and all of your shapes, patterns and textures just keep me going back for more looks. Using this design for an easel card is quite inspired. Perfect sentiment.

Beautiful easel card. I still have not tried one!! Right into my favs.
I know what you mean about shoveling! I have to use a hammer on our steps, they were like a sliding board!

Love your easel card - I definitely must try one of these! The black and white is so perfect with the bright red cherries! And the buttons looks great -- I used buttons too - but only had heart shaped red ones!!
