A Friendly Hello Easel Card

Hello Friends!

Today’s post is an easel card using the Friendly Hello Bundle. The Bundle is FREE with a $100 product purchase. Today is the last day to Sale-Brate! If you haven’t already checked the the FREE Sale-A-Bratiuon products, be sure to take a look and place your order.

Once you have your layers cut, this is an easy card to assemble. All of the measurements and a quick how to are below.

Today’s Card Details

The Fresh Freesia card base is 4 ” x 11″. scored at 2 3/4″ and 5 1/2″ on the longer 11″ side.
Fold at the center 5 1/2″ score line first then fold the 2 3/4″ piece in toward the center fold. Burnish your folds.
The Basic White card front layer is 3 3/4″ x 5 1/4″.
The card front patterned paper layer is 3 1/2″ x 5″.

The Inside

The inside of the card has three Basic White layers.
Cut the bottom Basic White layer 2″ x 3 3/4″ – Cut the center Basic White layer 3″ x 3 3/4″ – Cut the top Basic White layer 2 1/2″ x 3 3/4″.
The patterned paper layer for the sentiment panel is 1 3/4″ x 3 1/2″.
The patterned paper layer for the center of the inside is 3 1/2″ x 2 3/4″.
Attach all of your layers to the inside of the card as shown below.
The top two layers are attached with Multipurpose Glue while the bottom layer is attached with Dimensionals.
The bottom layer will hold your card front in place when you create your easel because it has the height from the Dimensionals.

The Outside Card Front

Attach the cut layers to the outside of the card base as shown below.

Cut a white sentiment strip and cardstock layer to the size you need for your sentiment.
The basic white sentiment strip in my card is 7/8″ x 2″.
The cardstock layer for the sentiment strip is 1 1/8″ x 2 1/4″.
I stamped and fussy cut the flowers and leaves from the Friendly Hello stamp set and shaded them with Fresh Freesia and Granny Apple Green Blends.
They’re attached with Dimensionals.
The large Friendly Hello sentiment is stamped directly onto the patterned paper front with Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

Just A Note

A regular A-2 card is 4 1/4″ wide. This card is 4″ wide. It has a bit of dimension and does fit nicely into a regular A-2 envelope.

I hope you enjoy re-creating this card as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

So, find some great patterned paper, add coordinating cardstock, fussy cut some flowers and create a special easel card to say hello to a special friend!

…the only limitation is your imagination!
