Christmas Cards All Year Round DT Call

They are having a DT call at Christmas Cards All Year 'Round so I waited until the last minute and finally decided "What the heck!".  So, here goes nothin'...




This is an easel card I made back in September using a cute little Tilda stamp, My Mind's Eye papers, copics, some distress inks, Stickles, Wild Orchid flowers, ribbon from my stash, and a snowflake charm.

That's all for today (I think 3 posts is enough for one day.). 

Winter Wonderland Easel Card

I was looking through some blogs today and realized that I haven't made an easel card in forever, so I whipped this one out.  I sometimes think I have to go overboard on embellishing easel cards (don't know why), but I think this one turned our pretty cute.
