Twisted Easel Tutorial


Hi Friends, Sandy here for The Stamping Chef with another easy tutorial for you to feature your great digi stamps.  Easel cards are a great way to do this and really are easy to do.  I thin this will be a Easel Series Tutorial. I guess this would be Easel Part 1.

So lets get started...


  • For basic Easel, Start with 5x10 cardstock and score horizontally at 2.5" and 5" and fold.  You will need another 5x5 piece for your picture base to go on front


  •  Now for your Twisted Easel, same measurements but instead of folding straight across, fold from top left corner down to bottom right.  That's it, so easy!!!!


  •  Here is what it looks like when upright


  •  Now put you adhesive on the bottom triangle


  •  And attach your 5x5 square to the bottom glued triangle


  •  When you start to decorate your card, you are going to fold it in half that way you image is not sideways when you open it


  •  Decorate the front


  •  Decorate the inside


  •  Don't forget to raise your embellishments with pop dots. This is what will make your easel.


  • And here you go!!!!

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8
