Laughing about the Title on this post. I only did that because of the stamp verbiage I used on the card from the stamp set. LOL but it’s also fitting with how freaking cold it was this past few days..
So, one of my amazing abilities at time is to see something and create it, meaning I looked at a card and I wanted to make it but I never looked for directions, I just started out and made it, so when I was designing gnome cards last week for my cards in the mail, I decided to make this card for Blog posting, it’s more work than I would do for card class kits.. LOL! But I know some of you would make them more if you liked and it was easy enough.
I’m going to get right on with photos as there are a few to give you a good view.
I’m calling this a Triple Easel card, not sure if that is what everyone calls it but that’s my name for . Let me know what you think!?
Side view, it’s hard to see because if the watermark, but the first flap is held by a milky dot.
It’ s new one Mango color like the DSP which is from Rain or Shine DSP and yes it’s BRIGHT, AND BUSY, but I thought it would well with this little card and the gnomes and critters.
I‘M just going to give you my measurements here and you can work from there, but first let me add, that the if you think of this as three little cards clued together you will understand my what I’m saying regarding the DSP, so please make this with card stock first if you are not sure, make a prototype first like I did (No photo of that’s here though), sorry.
So we will call this Base card, then middle, and smallest. I hope that helps you… each one has two pieces on front flap because of score for tent shape, and then on in side like we would normally do white or vanilla to write in, you will have to either write inside the upper flap or on the back of hate card, not much space other wise.
So here we go.
Base C/S 4 1’4” X 11” score at 5 1/2” and 2 3/4” top DSP 2 pieces 2 1/2” x 4” , inside on this one is 4”x 5 1/4”
Middle C/S 3” x 8” score at 4” and 2” top DSP 2 pieces 1 3/4”x 2 3/4” , inside piece is 2 3/4” x 3 3/4”
Smallest C/S 6”x 2 1/4” score @ 3” and 1 1/2”, top DSP 2 pieces is 2”x 1 1/4”, inside 2”x 2 3/4”
I also used the speckled looking DSP same color but a little different it’s not flower paper, but in same package.
I also colored all the images and the dies on gnomes and fussy cut the other things.
Milky dot 160582 the mango color on sign and as a stopper inside for the smallest stopper.
