Play Time

Hi Everyone!

Today my kids had a teacher in-service and early dismissal from school- so-- I got to leave early from work and come home to......


This is my very first Easel Card.  It was very surprisingly easy to make.  I guess I never tried one before because I thought it would be too time consuming or difficult (or some other excuse!)

There are so many tutorials out there on how to make an Easel Card.  If you haven't tried one- there's no better time than right now!

The paper is all from My Mind's Eye
The music notes are cut at 3" from Cricut Lite Twinkle Toes and "Play" is cut at 2" from Live Simply.
The Crinkle Ribbon and Button is from my brand new store at 3 Girl JAM.

A few challenges that this card fits into:
