I had to try my hand at another twisted easel card.
Here’s a close up of this cutie Tilda… she makes me smile!
Tilda with Heart Lace is from the NEW, You Are So Special Collection. I also used the Happy Birthday stamp, the Mini Zig Zag and Scalloped Lace die, the Romantic Lace die and the Romantic Lace Tag all from that same NEW collection. I also used the Doohickey’s Swirl die.
How I made this Twisted Easel Card…
- first I made the 6×6 card front, colored the image, layered it up, etc
- then the card base as follows in the photos below…
- now you will score your “in half” fold and your diagonal with your bone folder so you have nice, sharp folds and it will look like the next photo
decorate the base so it holds your easel in place when it’s open. Oh and I should say the card folds flat for mailing! cool!
The Martha Stewart Score board is awesome! I love the 1/8 in. marks all the way across and I love making my own 6×6 envelopes. The pattern paper is from a Basic Grey 6×6 paper pad… the orange card-stock is from Stampin Up… it really is orange/pumpkin, not red. I used Copic Sketch Markers to color Tilda… skin is E000, 00, 01, 21, hair is E50, 51, 53, 55, 57, dress is BV0000, 000, 00, 01, 02, 04, shadowed a little with C00 and C1. oh her shoes are E43, 44, 47 and the grass is a crazy mess of greens!!! lol
Have FUN with this “twist” on the Easel card!!! ttul!

Wow, this is lovely Pam! I gotta try that!
What a neat card and oh so pretty!
So pretty Pam. Have I told you how jealous I am of you? I know, bad Tracy. You put so much into your cards. All the details are so perfect and never overdone. And the coloring, that’s where I get even more jealous. You know how perfect I think it is. Love the shading of her purple dress.
Have a nice evening. Hugs…Tracy 🙂
Super great card & wonderful easy to understand tutorial … Thanks for showing us how something that LOOKS so complicated can be done so easily.
Big hugs & thanks from Montana, Janie
She’s so adorable Pam, love how you colored her!!! I really like those little tuffs of grass under her feet, beautiful job!!!

Is that what the triangular piece of plastic is for? I wondered and didn’t have a clue! The card is perfect, as always, Pam, and the tutorial is so appreciated. Now, I’ll have to give this a try, too! *sigh* The never ending card drove my brain crazy until I figured out the flips and turns, LOL! I love the papers and colors on your card, but most of all, I love your Tilda!

LOVE this card, I hope I can find some time today to make one of these — at least the “base” part. I love the coloring on your Matilda. I’ve never used Copics nor do I have any…but I do have watercolor pencils and such but I’m TERRIBLE at coloring things – drat! LOL. Beautiful card, for sure!
I fell in love with your swivel card…and I really appreciate you taking the time to share a how to….as I am trying to spread my card making wings out…and get away from the simple fold in half cards.
Brilliant tutorial and beautiful card – thanks so much for sharing 🙂 xx
WOW…..absolutely GORGEOUS, Pam………saved your tutorial for future use! Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
