I created a side easel card.
The base colour and contrast here is a gorgeous bright pink, with those ever so beautiful GCD Studio Paris Nights papers, found at Which Craft on my recent shop, I snatched them in my basket before Lols or Christine could spy them.  The frame is a large labels one, with the MS heart edge punch, some lush ribbon from Lidl and another of my new sentiments which fitted perfectly.  Flowers from stash and pearls from the Hobby House.  Stickles has been added to the flowers.
The image coloured in copics to match the paper.  The image is called "I give you my heart" and is available from Simon Says Stamp

    Now this is the first time I've seen a side easel card or maybe not as someone who received a standard easel card from me once put hers accidentally sideways lol! But this is the first I've seen meant to be this way!

    It looks fabulous & gives completely different scope for creating. Your tulips are beautifully coloured xx
