Sisterhood of Crafters - Easel Cards

 Hello my friends!

Today I have a card for the new challenge over on The Sisterhood of Crafters!

Our theme, chosen by Debbie this time around, is:
 
 EASEL CARDS
 

I decided to use this opportunity to create something a little 'special' for my girlfriends birthday card.  (She loved it BTW!)  She is a tea-toter and loves the color purple ... enough said!  LOL
 
Here are a few other photos of today's card:
 
(set up)
 
 
 (open to reveal sentiment)
 
 (fully closed)
 
 The dies I have used are:
Spellbinder Decaled Rectangles (inside sentiment panel)
Penny Black Celebrations (51-028) - Front Happy Birthday Sentiment
Frantic Stamper - Tea Set (FRA-DIE09338)

The Paper Boutique 'Lavender Fields' Coloured Card Collection was used for my base card and the coordinating 6x6 Decorative Papers were used for my design.

Challanges to share in:
 
I hope you'll come join in our challenge fun at The Sisterhood of Crafters!
My 'sistahs' have created some fabulous creations to help inspire you ...

    What a perfect card for a tea lover! Love what you did with the background paper having the flowers come from the top down on the front panel. Lovely work, Darlene!

    Darlene, I just adore this card! I might have to look for those dies! AND the designer paper!! Wow! And my favorite little detail - the "Special Friend Blend" sentiment. Love it all, Sistah!

    I love easel cards, Darlene, they are always such a fun surprise when you open them and find the sentiment "hidden" on the inside. Love the beautiful papers you used. Everything on your card just goes so beautifully together, love it all.
    May your troubles be less, and your blessings be more,
    and nothing but happiness, come thru your door!
    ♥ Lena

    What a pretty card this is Darlene! It really does make me think of afternoon tea out on the lawn with the scent of the flowers and the buzzing of busy insects...! I bet your friend loved it to bits! Vicky x
