Welcome to My Crafting Channel Good morning everyone. It's my turn to post this month over at Silhouette Challenges. As always the challenge is Anything Goes as long as you use a Silhouette product in the creation of your project. I have seen quite a few what a called merged Easel cards. I was determined to figure out how to merge the image to the top where it bends and have it cut correctly and after 2 hours I did it. I kept it very simple for my first card. I will try to some that are more detailed in the very near future. I think overall it turned out rather cute for my first try. Let me know what you think.
