Christmas Easel card

Hello and welcome everyone.  I have a new card project I'd like to share with you that I created after watching a YouTube video by Cynthia Maynard(I'll try to link the video below).  Mine may not have come out as well but I'm very happy with the results.  Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think and then head on over to Cynthia Maynard's channel and check out her video.

Supplies:


Additional supplies: ATG, clear blocks, Stampendous Truck Tidings stamp set (CLD01), American Crafts Jolly 6x6 paper pad (35760)

  1. Create an A2 sized card base from Whisper White card stock to measure 5 ½” x 8 ½” and score at 4 ¼”.
  2. On the front panel, cut one side on the 1 ½” mark up to the score line and then slide the card base to 4” and cut up to the score line.
  3. Cut a 3” x 4” piece of Whisper White card stock and adhere centered inside the card base. Glue down the two sides using favorite adhesive.
  4. For the side panels cut 2 patterned paper panels that measure 1 ¼” x 4” and for the middle panel cut 2 pieces of coordinating patterned paper at 1 7/8” x 2 ¼”. Fold the center panel in half, score with bone folder and adhere the patterned paper with favorite adhesive.
  5. Next, cut 2 different size labels, stamp sentiment on the smaller label using Cherry Cobbler ink and then adhere the labels together with Dimensionals. Adhere the sentiment to the inside of the flap and then stamp a coordinating sentiment beneath.
  6. Die-cut a scalloped circle from another piece of the patterned paper and then a plain circle from Whisper White card stock. Sponge the edges of the White circle with Cherry Cobbler ink and then stamp the focal image with Memento Tuxedo black ink. Color the images with Stampin’ Write markers (Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Tempting Turquoise, Berry Burst).
I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often for more inspiration. Thank you for visiting.

Here Comes The Ice Cream Man- layout

Hello and welcome to today's post. I have a layout share that features the Echo Park Playground collection and the Heidi Swapp Project Life kit along with some exclusive alphas from the June Hip Kit. This layout was hard to put together for the challenge over at Sketches in Thyme (#205) but loved the collection I chose for the photos I was using. I had taken my son over to the mall to go to the indoor playground and while waiting for it to open he spotted the powered ice cream truck that made noise. Of course Michael just had to ride and he looks like he's really enjoying it. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think. . Supplies used: Echo Park Playground collection, June (main) Hip Kit alphas, Heidi Swapp Project Life kit (the stars), Cherry on Top DSP (SU), Summer Starfruit cardstock for the background(SU), ATG tape runner and Mini glue dots. I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often for more inspiration. Tha...
