Easy Easel Card

The crazies have decided to move into the Anderson household and they don't seem to want to leave!!!!! I can't find my mojo!!! Every time I sit down at my desk to create, I just stare and my mind is blank. Well Wednesdays I'm off work so I decided to simply relax and let the creative juices flow. I'm involved with a Facebook SU demo group and we have weekly creative challenges -- HOORAY! This week we need to make an easel card. I saw the easiest easel card ever being made on You Tube and knew that what exactly what I needed.

Start with a piece of cardstock cut at 4 1/4 x 11, score at 5 1/2. Then score the front half of the card diagonally, from the left corner of your 5 1/2 inch score line to the bottom right corner. I used a piece of the Share What You Love specialty dsp along with the Stitched All Around bundle and BOOM, I've got an easel card. Super simple...gotta love that!

Below is a list of all the products I used on my card. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Southern Serenade

What a slacker!!!!! I had this card made last week and never posted it!! It uses the beautiful set Southern Serenade that carried over from the Occasions catalog. In case you're wondering, yes, I colored this, says the lady who prefers not to color!! Gotta say, the SU blends are wonderful and they blend so beautifully. There are lots of new colors in the new catalog, however, they will not be available until mid-June. The layer behind my flower stem I started out with a watercolor wash of Mint Macaron. It just needed something more so I stamped the lacy image from the set, also in Mint Macaron, right on top...perfect!! I also added some Wink of Stella onto the flowers for that subtle pop of sparkle. Now into the mail this card must go, a good friend is having a birthday next week.

Have a wonderful day!!! Thanks for stopping by and be sure to take a peek at my shop. There's so much fun, new goodies that you simply must have!!!
