Twisted Easel - Potential Swap Card

Hello Lovelies,
I have a "twisted easel" card to share with you. This is my first attempt at this type of card. It took a little time, not because of the fold (easy, so please try it) but because I didn't have any plans for the card, no paper, no ideas. Now, this is normally the case with one exception, I have my design paper picked out, not for this card.  All I knew was, it would be a "twisted easel" card. I am struggling a little bit today with my execution...might be the telephone. Everyone and their extended family has called me today.  Usually, I am able to get right off the phone but not today, don't they know, "I'm crafting." Anyhoo, I have a swap coming up and I'm trying to decide which card to send.  I have enough time, they aren't due until the 20th but I will be mailing them out on the 5th. So, you ladies and I have to decide which one to mail by then.  I will make one more set and then, we will decide between the (3) designs, okay? Thanks for the visit.
Hugs,
~Shen

  2. This card is so absolutely gorgeous, Shen! I love the different colored trees! You did such a fantastic job, as usual! I love to make easel cards but haven't attempted a twisted one yet, you have inspired me to try one :D
