I saw this easel card on a crafter’s website once, but now I can’t find the site. However, I really wanted to make these for a few friends that I knew would really like one for their desks. I worked and worked and worked until I got it just the way I wanted it. And I’m so excited and happy with the final result. You will see the ‘evolution’ from the lavender to the yellow to the green as I resolved my issues. Working with the multiple square shapes in KNK Studio, I was having a hard time keeping all the layers straight, with how I wanted it to look. Then I had a ‘moment’ and I was soooo excited! I remembered one of Sandy’s videos on “Clipping” and I used it for my patterned pieces. This was a great way to keep them visually organized!

I love these Magnolia and Gorguss stamps – I can’t get enough of them. I specifically made the inset layers to accommodate these stamps , however you could adjust the group down to any size desired (it really can’t go any larger). I drew the wooden bench under the Magnolia girl on the green easel card with a multiliner. The images are colored with Copic markers and the flowers are by Prima.
Gorgeous work! I absolutely love this idea. It gives a whole new way to “gift” a card. Thank you for sharing the beautiful examples.
Thank you very much! I am working on other themes now, I’m having so much fun with them.
These r just so adorable. I will take the last one as green is my favorite color. Love them. U did a fabulous job. TFS
I love the green one too! I found some other cool papers in my stash to go with the green post-its and I can’t wait to try them out.
These are so, so CUTE. I love this idea and you did a GREAT job on them. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much; I’m so glad you liked them!
Great job, these are so nice. Another thing added to my to do list! Thanks!
These are beautiful, Michelle. Your friends must surely smile and think of you every time they look at them. A very useful gift.
Thank you! And I hope you’re right!
These are sooooo Brautiful, Michelle. I love those sooo much. GREAT JOB, Thank you!!!!!
Very neat! They look amazing. Thanks for the great share, and idea!
Thank you, Chad. I cut all the pieces on my KNK Maxx because I can’t seem to get the boxes ‘square’ on any of my paper trimmers. I also printed my own 13″ x 19″ paper for a new equine theme I’m working on. I hope to share that one with you soon.
OMGoodness! How Beautiful!! I’m going to have to try this!
Thanks for sharing!!!! Ü
Definitely try it! They are a lot of work, but so much fun! And everyone who received one loved it!
Glad you didn’t give up! They turned out gorgeous! Your friends will love them. Love they hold note paper too.
Michele, do you have assembly directions? IE scoring measurements, box assembly, etc. Between the paper sizes and the pictures I hace 3/4 of what I need to make this, just need the other 1/4. Thanks!
These are great and would brighten up anyone’s desk and work day. Your coworkers are very lucky.
Love, Love, Love your card. It is just beautiful. I really like the colors and the flowers make it so dainty and fresh. I would like to have one sitting on my desk. Great idea and thanks for sharing.
Very Nice Michele. Love the colors
