Hello Doodle-friends! Wanda here today sharing a fun easel card made with the My Happy Place collection! Cheerful colors and a cheerful message on this card. Perfect for a thank you or a just because card. It folds flat for mailing! Have you ever made an easel card? I like it because the recipient can easily display it and it can cheer them up! This is a super simple card with one score/fold but it packs a punch in impact. To find directions - Google "easel card" and many links will come up. You can make a round one, square one, or in my case an A2 size.
My underlying card is white cardstock folded. Then I added lots of papers and stickers from the My Happy Place collection. I also added Flower Garden Doodle Pops and some gems for good measure. This card folds flat and fits in an A2 envelope!
The key to a good easel is that you have to place something on the bottom part for the card to 'hook' onto. I used a pretty sticker and mounted it to the card with foam tape. I added a word sticker and some hearts to the bottom also.
Here's a side view so you can see the logistics!
A close up of my little embellishment cluster...gems, flowers, stickers...all the good things!
The main image is a rectangle cut from the 12x12 My Happy Place paper pad. I added a heart to the vase and I also splattered on some white paint.
I hope I've encouraged you to make an easel card of your own! The My Happy Place collection is wonderfully happy and pretty! I'll be back soon with another project. Until then, happy crafting!
