Hello. It’s Gaylynn here. For Technique Time at Unity Stamp Company, I am showing a way to make an easel card that includes an outdoor scene. In this tutorial, no dies are used.
Incorporating 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.
Sentiment: Hi.
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.
Card Base: Cut 11″ x 4 1/4″, score at 5 1/2″.
Mint Frame Panel: Cut 10 1/4″ x 4″, score at 5 1/2″ and 7 3/4″.
Cloud Panel: Cut 5″ x 3 3/4″.
White Front Strip: Cut 3 3/4″ x 2 1/4″.
This is another look.
Here is my video tutorial for this project. It will detail the full process.
