Where's the birdie?

Good evening bloggers, tonight's blog is dedicated to my friend Jean.
She recently asked me how to make a reverse easel card, so just for you Jean I have written up instructions which can now be downloaded on the main site.
Meanwhile, here is a picture of the one I made earlier for the sake of the instructions!


Here are the instructions on how to make the card:

Reverse easel card
Ingredients
Card
Dies
Embellishments/toppers etc
Tools
Die cutting machine
Trimmer
Scissors
As with ordinary easel cards, this version will work with any size you decide to work with. For my card I have used a Marianne die for the top of the card to give it a nice shape, if you don’t have a fancy die, you could maybe just round the top of.
I have used some very low tack tape to hold the die in place


This is how it looks after it has been run through the die cutting machine

Turn the card over and fold the card in half

Fold the back of the card in half again, back in on itself

I have used a sentiment topper on the back of the card as a stopper

I have decorated the front of the card with a tea bag matted onto a die cut and then decorated it with gems.
