2013 Calendar Easel Stand

Hello, everyone! I can't believe it is December already. Time sure fly this year but I'm ready for 2013.

 A friend from Hawaii sent me some little calendars for me to play with. This was what I came up with. I made an easel calendar stand. It is perfect for a desk top for your home or office. This one will be on my stamping desk and hopefully I don't lose it while stamping away. Lots of things gets buried under my pile of stuff when I create. hehe

Thank you for stopping by!

Reason To Smile

Hello, everyone! I made an easel card using the new Reason to Smile stamp set.  I think the stamp set name is very fitting. For the month of July with a $60 purchase you can get the Reason to Smile stamp set for just $5. Isn't that a reason to smile? You can't get a better deal than that. For $5 you get 7 stamps in this set. Normally one stamp can cost you from $5-$10 depends on the stamp size.

Well, I'm off to make some more cards with this stamp set. Thank you for stopping by!

Scallop Circle Easel Card Tutorial

Happy Friday everyone! Beautiful sunny day today here in Vancouver. This post was supposed to be on Thursday but I couldn't post it all day yesterday. Glad the problem is over.

So here is a tutorial on how to make a scallop circle easel card.


1.Die cut a 5" x 10" card stock with the Scallop Circle Die (this die is about 4-1/2" in diameter) and the Big Shot Cutting Machine as shown in picture above.


2.This is how it should look like after the card stock is die cute.


3.Open the scallop circle up, put it into the paper trimmer. Count 16 scallops (the picture showed only 14 scallops, I didn't want to retake the picture) on the circle, making sure to line up the folded part of the scallop circle and score. You should score the valley part of the scallop.



4.Use a Bone Folder to sharpen the score line. Add adhesive to half of the scored scallop circle.



5.Die cut another scallop circle, line up the scallops on the circle and adhere it onto the scored circle. Decorate the scallop circle.



Here is my version of the card. Hope you like this little tutorial of the scallop circle easel card. Let me know if you have any question.


Happy Stamping!

Fabulous Florets Easel Card

Happy Tuesday everyone! Here is a scallop circle easel card made using the Fabulous Florets stamp set.



I stamped the flowers on Vellum and embossed it with White Embossing powder. Cut them out and attached them onto the card. The rest of the card is pretty much self explanatory.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Happy Stamping!
