Sending Happy Thoughts (SACC)

Come on over and join us. :) 


This is my very first easel card. I found a super easy tutorial that makes me wonder why in the world I waited so long to try it!


I punched out my butterflies with a Martha Stewart hand punch. I used a rainbow of colors from my stash. This is a great way to get rid of those scraps. :) I stamped my WPlus9 Design Studio sentiment in Versafine Onyx Black ink in the very center of my panel, placing my butterflies around it. After adhering, I added Crystal Stickles to their bodies.



On the inside, I created this panel by starting with very thin (1/8 inch) strips of the same paper as my butterflies. Another great way to use up those scraps. :) I adhered them with glue in across my scrap paper and then trimmed once everything was dry. I then added the black mat and used this piece to create a stand for my easel card. I thought it needed "something", so I added the same Stickles to the corner like I would enamel dots.


Thanks for looking! I hope this finds you happy and healthy.
