Tulip Flowers Scene Girl ~ Easel Card Tutorial

 For Technique Time, I am showing a way to make an easel card that includes an outdoor scene.  In this tutorial, no dies are used.

Sentiment:  Hi.

An easel card technique is a great way to add interest and dimension to a handmade card.  It is interactive and is includes pretty scene building.

Helpful tips:

Here are helpful tips for creating this easel card scene.  To begin, stamp the girl, the flowers and the sentiment.  Next, trim and score a card base and a mint color frame panel.  Then, trim a cloud panel and a bottom trim.  Also, add color to the girl and flowers and then fussy cut (cut out) the girl and the flowers.  I used a circle punch for the sentiment.  Next, add light ink blending in two colors onto the cloud panel using a cloud stencil.  Finally, adhere the scored green panel onto the card base and add the accent layers to finish the easel card.

A2 card base:  Cut 11" x 4 1/4" and score at 5 1/2".
Mint frame layer:  Cut 10 1/4" x 4" and score at 5 1/2" and 7 3/4".
Cloud layer:  Cut 5" x 3 3/4".
White front strip:  Cut 3 3/4" x 2 1/4".
