I saw this card shape on pottles craft forum and just had to have ago sorry I have looked for the post again but can’t find it and can’t remember how posted it.This card is so easy to make but has the wow factor I love it.
You need to start with a 8″ x 8″ pieces of cards stock score at 4″ on both sides.Then with your trimmer cut from the where the score lines meet down to bottom making a 4″ cut.
Next make a diagonal score line from the middle score line to meet the other score line do this on the the side as well.
Your card base should look like this.
Fold and burnish your score line so card card stand up.
Cut to 3 3/4″ squares in DSP and cut one in half diagonally.
Stick these to your card base.
To make the easel card in the middle of your card you will need to fold your card stock in half and places your die with the end over the end of your cardstock this will then cut the base of your easel card.Then cut out a full circle and 2 small ones and a oval one in your card stock, then cut a small circle and ovals in whisper white card stock
stamp your image and sentiments and then stick them together .
fold the top half of your easel card in half, trim a little of the white circle and stick that down.then glue your image to the half circle
Add your easel card to the middle of your base card and the 2 smaller sentiment on to the side flaps.this card will fold flat to post.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
