New Baby, Double twisted easel

My grandson Is about to have a new baby brother any day now ( this will not be our grandson, My Son and Keatons mummy have split up) this is a little welcome card .

The papers and Toppers I have used are from a Nitwits Collection Download,

I do love all these collections and have quite a few stored on my PC the backing papers are stunning.

Would like to collect them all but bank balance says no

If you look at my blog background this was also made using one of the collections

I have added some glamour dust to the cloud edges, buttons and flowers

And some pretty lace under the stopper banner

Double Twisted Easel Card Instructions

Here is a Double Easel Card, on a forum I belong to someone asked how it was made.

So I did a simple instruction sheet

 First cut your Base card into 8X8 inch Square

Then fold in half

 Measure 4 inches from one side along the top, cut down to the fold line see photo

 Then you score from corner to corner ,and fold each side as in the photo below, I have added some pattern card so that you can see how it fold better

Then you add double sided tape to the edges, where I have marked in green

You then take your base card and cut two 4x4 inch square toppers.

 you take your toppers and add them one on each side as in the photo 

Then when you fold your card back up it will look like this

All you then need to do is decorate each side.

Please keep checking as you decorate, that your embellishments are the right way up, as they will look different when folded into position

 Here are some close ups of the finished card

Papers are from papermainia Blueberry Hill

Topper is a download from Funky kits

Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts

Punches are Martha Stewart
