Hi Everyone, Anet here today and welcome to my inspiration post. I made a Gatefold Easel Card & Calendar with the Lavender Love Collection from Couture Creations. I found the inspiration from Susan’s Blog. I did not follow all her steps, instead I made some changes and put my spin on it.
Step by Step Instructions: My video tutorial below will show you how to create the fabulous Gatefold Easel Card & Calendar and you will also find all the measurements.I trimmed Smooth White Cardstock, score and fold the cardstock to create the card base. I cut Navy Cardstock, Lavender Love Patterned Paper 3 and 4 layered it onto each other and adhered it onto the card base. I then cut Navy Cardstock to 2 1/8″ x 3 1/8″ layered the Calendar Tab 2023 onto the cardstock and adhered onto the card base. I also die-cut Paper Bag Cardstock with the Lavender Love Weathered Fences Die and adhered it onto the card base. Following from this I also added Lavender Love Ephemera.For the stopper of the easel card I die-cut Smooth White Cardstock with the Modern Essentials Nesting Inset Oval Frame Cut, Foil and Emboss Die. Follow my video tutorial below to learn how to add this feature. I stamped the Flourish & Thrive Box Christmas Bells Sentiment Stamp onto the smooth white cardstock die-cut using the Embossing Ink Pad, Mirror Platinum Classic Metallics Embossing Powder and heat embossing it. I then added Emerald Green Adhesive Pearls and adhered it onto the card base.
Belly Band
I trimmed Navy Cardstock to 1 1/4″ x 10″ and decorated it with stamping the Flourish & Thrive Box Leaf Waxflowers Sentiment Stamp onto the smooth white cardstock die-cut using the Embossing Ink Pad, Mirror Platinum Classic Metallics Embossing Powder and heat embossing it. I then added Emerald Green Adhesive Pearls, Green Mulberry Paper Long Grass, Baby Blue and White Lavender Stems and adhered it onto the belly band to finish.
