Memory Box Easel card and video…

So excited to share an Easel card with you today… it’s a multiple easel, Easel card!  I love working with Memory Box and Poppystamps dies and papers…to really see the card well in the video, change the ‘gear’ to HD and click the full screen.  It’s so much better BIG!  : )   This was my 3rd take… the first two…well,  I got the measurements and names right but messed up with construction!  oh well…be sure to note the ‘notes’!  Hope it inspires you to use your dies… hehe

I show the construction process and tell the sizes in the video…

I LOVE the addition of the kite to this scene!   It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood!

You can swing for awhile… grab a friend and go for a bike ride and even rest for awhile on the awesome park bench!

I used all Memory Box card-stocks… Water, Dill, Granny Smith, Vanilla Bean, Licorice, Crimson and White.  So much fun!  Holler if you have any questions… I think between the video and the photos it’s pretty much self explanatory!

Magnolia, Tilda’s Town Challenge…

o

Let’s Celebrate!  This week’s challenge @ Tilda’s Town.

I colored Birthday Tilda with Distress ink pad reinkers on Canson Montval cold press watercolor paper.  The pattern paper is from the Basic Grey Blush 6×6 paper pad.  I used two DooHickeys dies,  Twisted Swirl and Heart Flower Lace Border.

I edged the papers with Walnut Stain Distress ink and the ink blending tool.  Stickles on the candles!

Tilda is such a cutie with her yummy chocolate cake!  A Viva Decor pearl pen for the dots in the background and the pearl is from Magnolia too.

I used the Perfect Layer Tools 1/16th inch ruler for matting… link and discount code in my sidebar…

I used the Perfect Layers Tools to mat Peggy, the fishtail banners and around the perimeter of the card.  For the fishtail banners, I cut both sides with the 1/16th in. ruler then cut up the center of the tail area with a scissors, then I was able to use the 1/16th ruler on each side of the tail.

The pattern paper is from Simple Stories. Flower and alphabet dies are from Quickutz.
