I saw the tutorial for this "Hat" easel card over at Beccy's Place. It was so intriguing I just had to try it. This is my first attempt. There are parts of it which are a bit 'fiddly' but with practice, I know I can get better at making them and I'm more than pleased with this one for a first try. :-D
This was made entirely from scraps of dp and I'm pretty sure they were from a DCWV stack. I didn't have enough of the darker scrap to do the entire hat so I used a lighter dp for the crown of the hat. Even the ribbon was a scrap piece.

Your card is awesome NanaConnie! I would say running out of the darker paper was definitely a happy accident, I love the lighter piece on top, the contrast is fabulous. Great choice of border punch too, such a pretty pattern. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Beccy
This is cute. It somehow makes me want to have a high tea. That would be fun. [Bunny]
It’s absolutely super! And very satisfying to know you made it from using up some scraps! Thanks for playing along with Uniko. X
