Easel Card




Yeah, I've been busy experimenting with new card techniques since I felt most of mine were all starting to look similar to me. So here is my first attempt at an "Easel Card". I think it turned out nice, but next time I would definitely make the bottom matted paper at tad smaller to show the punched border when it is properly set up. Ah well, practice, practice, practice! Pearls on the sentiment and up near the punched border add some bling and the top ones also act as stops when I open the card all the way. Otherwise, the sentiment, which is adhered with dimensionals, acts as the stopper when open.

Magic Card


Well, maybe not "magic" per se, but I've seen this technique called that. It's simply the same image stamped twice: once on cardstock and coloured, then again on clear acetate. Bind them together at the top and make a slider card to insert it into.
Here's the Copics I used to colour it in:
I guess if I were to personalize this, I would lift up the acetate and write the greeting or sign it on the white cardstock.
