Back today with my card for All That Scraps Magnolia Challenge # 7, HERE! The challenge is, “Let’s Celebrate Birthdays“! Hope you can join us! I had to try my hand at another twisted easel card.
Here’s a close up of this cutie Tilda… she makes me smile!
Tilda with Heart Lace is from the NEW, You Are So Special Collection, HERE. I also used the Happy Birthday stamp, the Mini Zig Zag and Scalloped Lace die, the Romantic Lace die and the Romantic Lace Tag all from that same NEW collection, HERE. I also used the Doohickey’s Swirl die, HERE.
How I made this Twisted Easel Card…
- first I made the 6×6 card front, colored the image, layered it up, etc
- then the card base as follows in the photos below…
- now you will score your “in half” fold and your diagonal with your bone folder so you have nice, sharp folds and it will look like the next photo
- decorate the base so it holds your easel in place when it’s open. Oh and I should say the card folds flat for mailing! cool!
The Martha Stewart Score board is awesome! I love the 1/8 in. marks all the way across and I love making my own 6×6 envelopes. It’s in the store, HERE. The pattern paper is from a Basic Grey 6×6 paper pad… the orange card-stock is from Stampin Up… it really is orange/pumpkin, not red. I used Copic Sketch Markers to color Tilda… skin is E000, 00, 01, 21, hair is E50, 51, 53, 55, 57, dress is BV0000, 000, 00, 01, 02, 04, shadowed a little with C00 and C1. oh her shoes are E43, 44, 47 and the grass is a crazy mess of greens!!! lol
Have FUN with this challenge and the “twist” on the Easel card!!! ttul!
