About Me

My photo
Hi, my name is Terri. My grandmothers taught me how to crochet and embroider on dish towels when I was a little girl, and that started my love of crafting. Over the years I tried different things but my favorite is still stamping and card making. And what makes it better now is that my 2 sisters like it also!! It's fun when we can get together and make cards!! I love learning new ideas and techniques and give hope to others to step out of their comfort zone and try a few new things. Thanks so much for stopping by....follow along if you'd like and see what we can create!!

Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 312 - Easel Card


Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 312 - Easel Card

Welcome to Tuesday Throwdown's Weekly Challenge for September 20, 2016.  Our challenge this week is an easel card, and our wonderful sponsor is The Stamping Boutique.  I couldn't resist this beautiful digital stamp called "Cardinal Ornament", although I have to admit I'm not ready for Christmas to be just around the corner!  Be sure to check out their digital images....you won't be disappointed!!

 I colored the cardinal and ornament with Copic markers.  Next I scored my easel card according to  the directions, and then I added the patterned paper on the sides and bottom.  I glued my image to the center portion and added some glitter on the stars surrounding the image.  I have to admit, I don't have my Christmas stamps out yet, so I used some black letter stickers to make the sentiment along the bottom of the card.  Maybe this will get me fired up to make my Christmas Cards a little early this year!  (*wink*)

Thank you for stopping by - hope to see your entry in this week's Tuesday Throwdown Challenge!
