Easel Challenge

The last little challenge we did was to make an easel. I made mine a birthday card using a friends back yard as inspiration. She had a gnome door in her tree, but no gnome to go with it. So I made sure my card one on it for her! I thought it turned out and she seemed to enjoy it when she received it.

All stamps are Lawn Fawn except for the birthday letters they are from Close to my Heart
The happy is a Lawn Fawn die cut letters
the grass is Fiskars grass border punch and the ballon is Martha Stewart punch
I used Distress inks in Mowed Lawn and Broken China for the back ground

Our next Challenge is to use paint sample chips on a card. I have most of it done, just need to add few more finishing touches before posting!
