Speedy Fox and Friends - Twisted Easel Card

The challenge at Speedy Fox and Friends today is to make an easel card.  This is my first time making a  twisted easel card.   I used the Mark's Finest Paper stamp set Shello and made it a belated birthday card as I am always late mailing out cards.  That is what happens when you are busy making the cards.
That sounds like as good an excuse as any.  ~grin~  Be sure and check out the other team members cards on the blog.    We would love to have you join us for the challenge.

    Whoa, when you told me you were making a great twisted easel, you sure weren't kidding! I love the deep sea green and blues color combo and your sea turtle looks quite at home, even though he is late for someone's BD!! Awesome coloring and the easel could not have turned out better!! HUGS!!

    Pretty card with awesome coloring! Your twisted easel turned out great. I have made easel cards but never this version...great technique. You are not alone! I always seem to be late too. Just not enough hours in my day!

    This is so pretty - I am inspired to do something similar, though the result will look nothing like this!
