Easel With A Twist Card

On Friday I showed how I re-vamped a card made with some bold peonies.  My original attempt had 4 flowers on it, but I removed one from the second edition.  That remaining flower has wound up on this card:
Look at this fun fold that makes it twist and stand up!
Here’s some basic instructions for this card:

Whisper White Thick Cardstock: 
10.5 x 21 cm or 4 ¼” x 8 ½”, scored at 10.5 cm or 4 ¼”
10.5 x 10.5 cm or 4 ¼” x 4 ¼”

On left panel of scored piece, score from top, left corner to bottom, right corner, dividing it into 2 triangles.

Crease the diagonal score so that the bottom triangle folds to the inside.

Add glue to that bottom triangle and affix the square flush on all sides. You should have the top, left triangle free-floating. 

Decorate the inside and outside as desired.  Add a sentiment or decorative element on Stampin’ Dimensionals inside positioned to hold up the easel.

If you give this fold a try, please send me pictures, or post them to my Facebook Page.

Upcoming Classes & Events

Crafting Fun and Prizes!
I will be crafting cards from the Global Paper Pumpkin Kit: Box of Sunshine, and welcome everyone to come play along.  If you don’t have one of these kits to use,  just make some cards using your own stash. Then we will prepare our cards to send out to some friends and family who could use a little bit of sunshine!  
 
Here’s some details for the day:

  • You will be able to nominate someone to receive one of the cards I create, and I will send it on your behalf, anywhere in the world.
  • If you’re participating in Australia, you will be entered into a drawing for the Box Of Sunshine stamp set and a set of the 4 kit cards to make and send – there will be 2 winners!
  • More SU! swag and product to be won by Aussie participants.

I hope you’ll be part of the fun!
