Triple Twist Easel Card - Design 5

 Hi Everybody,

Here is yet another way that you can add that twist to your triple easel cards and make them completely personal to you.

Add them to an envelope or make them a box and they are so very different for your recipient to enjoy.

The video will show you how to create this one and it is very easy to do. 

I have used my own handmade papers again and I tell you the colours I have used so that you can try it as well. 

Play with some of your inks to see what colour blends you like the look of and don't be afraid to go for it.

It is only paper and a little ink so if you don't like it then try again until you find something that you do like.

The other card ...

Hi Everybody,

In the video I shared yesterday, for the Easel Card Design 3,  I showed you the same design in another colour way. 

This one also has handmade coloured inked paper used on it and I used some left over flowers from the parchment ones that I made when I did that series on using parchment in your cards.

This is the card as it looks when it is raised up and each of the  easels is decorated with the flowers and I added in a floating butterfly as well. 

The next picture is how the card looks when closed up and to give my card I have made it a box.

I used the DL Card & Box maker set and there is plenty of room to fold the panels down and add it inside.

It is a much nicer way to give a card with so much dimension on it and nothing is compromised on the design.

I decided to make a navy blue box for this particular card and it looks lovely, and blends well with the stripey card on the .back portion of the panels

This picture shows how the panels look from the top when they are opened up, and clearly show all three kept open by the small wooden buttons I have used for the easel stops.

Nest week I will have some more Easel Card design to share with you and so I hope you will come back for those.

More tomorrow ...

Triple Twisted Panel Easel - Design 3

 Hi Everybody,

Todays card is another of those easel cards that are always popular and yet seem so difficult to make to new card makers.

Believe me they are not and once you have made one you will be happy  to try other variations.

This one is a little different and it has been around for years.

You will find many many tutorials on YouTube showing you how to make Easel Cards and all the variations

This is my version of the card

Triple Twisted Panel Easel  - Design 3

 and how I put my own personal mark on the card.

I really enjoyed making it and it is really special  and creating my own background papers helps to make it even more personal as no one else will have that paper.

Not even you will be able to make the exact same background twice  ...no matter how hard you try.

I hope you will give some of these cards a try for yourself and there are now lots of videos with all the different ways that you can make easel cards

There is sure to be one that takes your fancy, and I have more variations to come yet 

I have used my own DL box die set to make the box and if you have it all well and good but if you don't then you may find that it is no longer available for you to purchase.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
