 I have made an easel card out of white card, I have cut my image out with some nesties and mounted onto dcwv glitter card,  . I have added a marabou feather for a bit of texture, the dies are magnolia, and the sentiment is Lili of the Valley.

Well as Karen herself says "you have to be in it to win it!!"!!! So I will have a try!!! One of the round is a public vote!!! GULP!!!!! so I hope you all like my attempt!! the deets can be found here
