Wreath Easel Card

Hello, Gemma here today to share an circle easel card featuring the new Floral Wreath Builder die set.

I began by die cutting a folded card base with a circle die from my craft stash. Ensure the top of the die sits just above the fold when die cutting to create a circle card base. It will leave a slightly straight edge at the fold, but that will be covered up eventually. My circle card base is 3.75” in diameter.

I cut a second circle, the same size, from plain white card and ran it through the die cutting machine again with the Scallops Pierced Plate to add detail.

To create the easel card, open the circle card base and fold the top part in half inwards. Use a bone folder to get a good fold. Then add adhesive to the lower half of the front folded side and adhere the additional circle on top.

Next, I worked on the wreath. I die cut pieces from the Floral Wreath Builder from coloured card stock, adhering leaves and flowers on to the wreath until I was happy. I then adhered this to the circle card base.

For a sentiment on the front, I stamped and die cut one from the Friend Greeting stamp set, adhering it across the centre of the wreath.

As the easel card needs something to help the folded front stay upright, I stamped and die cut an additional greeting to adhere to the inside. I added several die cut layers behind to add height, which will help the card stand up properly.

There is space at the base of the card to write a personal message to the recipient.

I hope you were inspired by this card. Thanks for visiting!
