Easel Card #3

Boy, it really is hard to stop making these babies.  This card is really cute. I found this stamp at a convention in Las Vegas and thought it was so cool!

I used the same paper as I used in the first easel card I made.  If you click on the card, you can see I used the new cuttlebug borders for 5x7 cards on each side. That tied the paper in.  I used a christmas bulb as the stop for the fold.  For the beard and the hat I used faux flower soft. It is so easy. Just get styrofoam balls from the dollar store. Rub them together over a ziploc bag or something. Then take glue and put it where you want the fluff. Sprinkle the fluff and you're done. Easy Peasy!


Don't forget to click so you can see the affect of the styrofoam.

Easel Card #2

I decided that I didn't want to make small cards anymore. So this easel card is 5" x 5".   I never thought I would have a use for the background paper but it was a perfect fit to this Holly Card.  The holly and the berries are sealed in diamond glaze. It is a very pretty affect.

Easel Card #1

I have to say that when I first saw easel cards, I wasn't impressed. Then I was looking for an easy and fast card to make. Well, let me tell you, I fell in love with easel cards.  I am crazy about them.

I first started out with a 4" x 4" card.  I had some paper that I had for ages so decided to use it on this card and it really looked great!!  You can't tell that the dots are red rhinestones but they are.

Thanks for looking!

Meetup Group

I have started my own Meetup group and the first class is tonight. I have made 3 cards for them to do.  I will post them individually but at this moment can't provide any details to them because I am busy being the caregiver for my sister and BIL and I have to get down there.

But I really like these cards.  With my state of mind, they may stink.  Any constructive critism will help!
