Easter Bleassings

 

Before we get too far into this card I have to apologize because I used retired products but there are other products that you could use in lieu of the ones I chose and had on hand.  When I originally made this card at a workshop, it was a birthday card with a sentiment from Hooray for Surprises Stamp Set (162851) and the dies would have come from the Nested Essentials Dies (161597).  And for the envelope flap the Basic Borders Dies (155558). or an Easter sentiment Excellent Eggs (162801) or Easter Lilies (162783) With that being said, this fun fold could be used for any occasion.  You don’t need the retired items that I used. Like me, you use what you have.

EASTER BLESSINGS 

CASED DEBBIE MAIERS

HOW TO CREATE & ASSEMBLE:

  1. Fold your card base (5 1/2” x 8 1/2” scored at 1’, 2”, and 5 1/4”. Alternating the direction (mountain-valley-mountain) and burnish at the folds with your bone folder.
  2. Adhere your largest piece of DSP (3” x 5 1/4”) to the front surface and the slender piece (3/4” x 51/4”) along the lower front fold.
  3. Take your second piece of Heather cardstock (2 1/2” x 6” scored at 4 1/4”) fold at sure line and burnish. Adhere your (2 1/4” x 4”) piece of DSP to the front.  
  4. Center this on your card base and adhere to the narrow bottom fold with the flap to the back of the card. Set aside.
  5. Run your 3” piece of Heather cardstock through the emboss machine with the largest stitched square die.
  6. On your white 2 1/2” square piece of cardstock, stamp the sentiment and adhere this to your die cut.
  7. Die cut some greenery and couple of flowers and place where you would like on your card front. Add a couple of gems to make it “pop”.
  8. For the inside, adhere the white (3” x 5 1/4”) cardstock and add a thin strip of DSP (1/2” x 5 1/2”).
  9. For your envelope, adhere he DSP then run through the die cut machine with the envelope die.
