Easel Card

I am entering my twisted easel card for challenge in http://creativecraftworld.blogspot.com/2011/03/card-challenge-card-for-male.


                                                  




               I love to make Easel cards.they are made with their own built in
              easel and stand up. these are very easy to make.


         it is simply any 3 squares or circles or flower or any shapes
        joined together,and a brad or flower,cake any element  raised 
       with sticky tabs and  attached to the base card.


Materials:  


1, piece of card stock  10" X 5" for the base of the card and 5"X5" for the front of card.
2, Foot ruler, paper folder
3, sticky tapes (double sided)
4, brads or decorative elements or buttons 


as mentioned before easel cards could be in any size,shapes.


             Instruction


             1,Take your base card (10"x5") 
                         
                                  


                                                          2, fold it in half


                                                        
                                                    3, fold the first half again,


                                                        
                           4, affix glue or sticky tape as shown in the picture


                                                         
                                 5, stick the front (5"x5")  to the front (half)


                                                           
             6, add brads or thick flowers or buttons to the base card .
                 these makes the card stand and hold it in an
                 easel position.


               
some of the other easel cards i made.in both these cards i v'e 
used chip board cake stickers.




                                                                                                    


                                                         
                          I made a twisted easel card   for a challenge
