Sending Lots of Happy Snail Mail Easel Card. Stampin' Dreams Fun Fold Blog Hop June 2021

Good Afternoon Everyone,

scraps

Snail Mail DSP

1pc - 3 1/2" x 5"

1pc - 3 1/2" x 1 3/4"

1pc - 3 1/2" x 2 3/4"

1pc - 3 1/2" x 3/4"

First of all layer all the pieces of DSP onto the coordinating sized Real Red card stock mat.Now, stamp the image onto the 2 1/4" x 2 3/4" once dry, colour in with a selection of Stampin Blends and then layer onto the coordinating sized mat.

Take the Daffodil Delight and score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2". Fold the card in half along the 5 1/2", then open up the card and fold front the left towards the centre on the 2 3/4" score line and make sure you burnish both folds well.

Hold the card in a portrait manner and add the two smaller panels to the base section, add the larger one with liquid glue, then the smaller one with dimensionals. Stack two dimensionals on top of each other to give some height. This will hold the card in it's easel shape. Make sure you don't go too far up with them on the top edge, as the top panel will need a little room to sit.

Next, add the largest panel to the bottom section of the card, making sure you only add adhesive to the bottom half of the panel. Otherwise you will stick the card together and it won't stand up well.

Turn the card around and add the last piece of whisper white to the section of the Daffodil Delight Card stock section showing, this will give you somewhere to write a message.

Fussy Cut some images from the DSP and stamp the sentiments. Arrange these onto your card front sticking them down with a mix of liquid glue and dimensionals.
