well, I should have paid better attention when Nancy tried to warn us about Pat's habit of getting others addicted along with her...but no...I didn't listen....so here I am with another easel card....again, not cased from 1 specific card in Pat's wonderful gallery, more like several...
needed a card for a friend whose husband just diagnosed with cancer...thought this verse was helpful....the verse was comp. generated and is off center cuz I forgot how to use the center pt. feature on cricut...so just added larger flowers than planned to cover it up...I don't have the punch the gals are using for these, so cut flowers out with cricut and layered them up and added a gem to center...then added swirls, leaves, MS branches to fill it out...
sorry about the bad pic...the pearlescent paper just catches a glare no matter how I turned it...and it doesn't stand as tall as I cut the stop section to narrow..hmmm, next time maybe I'll actually read the directions...
thx Pat for the inspiration...

Sheri, this is awesome! I love those flowers - I know they were time consuming but they came out wonderfully. I am pretty sure that Pat will flip over this one. I have only done one easel card but now I am already planning my next one - that is how it goes. The real secret is that Pat is so smart - if she does something or uses something, it is probably unbelievably great fun!

This is just precious! And the fact that it's an easel card is an extra bonus. You've cased a wonderful card and with your own spin on things, created your own fantastic card.
