Cheesiest Birthday Card

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a fun Easel Card I created for a birthday card for my daughter celebrated her birthday recently.

This card uses stamps and dies from Made To Surprise by Sam Calcott's Going Against the Grain Collection which was released a few months ago.



I die cut the cheeseboard die to created the easel portion of the card in white and brown cardstock. For the brown panels, I used the die as a stencil with brown ink to give a woodgrain look.

I stamped and die cut the images multiple times and added them to my cheeseboard.

I added the sentiments as a stopper to keep the card open.

I also added the two hands holding the wine glasses, doing a reverse image for the one of the left and added them to my card.


Here is a look at my card when it is closed ready to be placed in an evelope. 


Here is the look at the inside of the card. The brown woodgrain base only goes partially up the base of the card. I then have some white space at the top to add a personal message.


Easel cards have lots of areas that can be decorated if you wish. So I decided to add another sentiment and some die cut cheese slices to decorate the back of the card.
