An Easel Card and 2 challenges! 2? really?

I hardly combine challenges, I just don't have that much time to search.
This card happened to fit into these 2 challenge blogs that I played with not long ago.

and

at For Fun Challenges this week is "Turkey Day Everyday"
is to create a project showing either "Thanksgiving" or "Thank You"

at Party Time Tuesday (PTT # 21) is Easel Card

Here's my take


I haven't make any Easel Card for a long long time, I remembered my first Easel Card was the first few weeks of City Crafter Challenge Blog, when Linda want us to try something NEW, and that was really long time ago, I almost forgot how to make that, thanks for the internet, just one click and you'll get tons of tutorial on how to make an easel card.


I think I am getting better at handling the glimmer mist and the spellbinder's embossing too, I still remember struggling with them not too long ago




Here are the links again if you want to play along

Beautiful card, however it does not fit the complete PTT challenge as PTT is a birthday card blog. Hope you will join us again another time!
