Mimosa on the Fence – Easel Challenge

 

DSC04875

Hello friends!  I’m so happy you stopped by today!  This is my first “official” project with the Bildmalarna Design Team and it’s to make an easel card.  Super-duper easy!  If you haven’t made one, you’re really missing out and they’re really cute too!!  :o)

This is what the front of my easel card looks like when it’s closed.

  • Frame of Mimosa – Classic Squares Large Nestabilities
  • Bling – Star Dust Stickles
  • Flowers – White Primas, Airbrushed with Y13, YR07 and BG75
  • Buttons – Recycled Ralph Lauren
  • Ribbon – White Sheer Creations (from Michaels), colored with YR07
  • Patterned Paper – “Best of K & Company” 360 piece paper stack
  • Copics – BG72, BG75, BG78, Y11, Y13, Y15, G05, G07, C1, C3, C5, BV23, YR04, YR07, YR09, E00, E02, E13, E15, E17, E18, E19

Up-close of the flowers and recycled buttons.  My husband was throwing away some old raggedy shirts the other day and I pulled them out to cut the buttons off.  I don’t think anything surprises him these days!  ha!

Hi Billie;
That's me always sitting on the fence. Love the airbrushed flowers, that's all I buy now is white. Cuts down on inventory.

Have a GREAT DAY!!!
