Birthday

Here is a fantastic project by Min using Shelly's Images "Birdie Banner" digi stamp.  

This card is even more beautiful in person.  I know because Min sent it to me for my birthday.  :)  I love the sponged clouds behind the stamp and the long format of the card is so fun.  We hope this beautiful project will inspire you.  Be sure to click on our "Spotlight On" category in the side bar for more great projects.  Or click on the specific Holiday or project type that you are working on for more great ideas and inspiration.

Technique Tuesday - Easel Card

I love making all different kinds of cards.  Easel cards are one of my favorites.  They are easy to make and everyone loves to receive them. 

Supplies needed:  one 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" piece of cardstock, one 4 1/4" square of cardstock, two 4" square pieces of designer paper, scoring tool, strong adhesive, desired images and embellishments.

Step 1:  Score the 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" piece of cardstock at 4 1/4" and 6 3/8"

Step 2:  Prefold all score lines.  First fold the card in half, then fold the second score line (6 3/8") opposite from the 4 1/4" score line.

Step 3:  Add adhesive to the 2 1/8"  x 4 1/4" section cardstock.  Adhere the 4 1/4" square to the card base.

Step 4:  Decorate the card front and inside of card with the two 4" squares of designer paper.  To make the card stand by itself, add an embellishment or sentiment with an additional layer of adhesive.

Step 5:  Decorate card as desired.

I hope you enjoy making your own easel cards.
