Good Morning Everyone
Happy Friday, and thanks for joining us on another Fun Fold Friday! Donna, Karen and myself all have projects to share with you.
I wanted to showcase some of the wonderfulness from the Hues of Happiness Suite - which is absolutely DIVINE - and I thought an Easel card was the perfect way to show it off.

---------------------------------------------
First of all layer all the pieces of DSP onto the coordinating sized Granny Apple Green card stock mat.
Take the Melon Mambo card stock 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 Crushed Curry Card stock section showing, this will give you somewhere to write a message.
Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment in Melon Mambo onto a scrap of basic white and then trim. Add this to the front panel which is raised.
Take the remaining piece of Basic White and run through your Cut & Emboss Machine with the trim edge to create what looks like a page from a note book. Stamp the sentiment just under that detail and then adhere to the large panel.
Add Dimensionals to the back of the three DSP Flowers. These can be fussy cut by hand, or there is a die that fits this image, so you can use that if you have it. Arrange these onto the stand up panel around the stamped piece, covering the the bottom corners, making it look like the note is poking out behind them.
I hope you have enjoyed today's card and will give it a go yourself. Please pop on over to see what Fun Folds Donna & Karen have to share with us all today
