I have wanted to create one of these types of cards for a while! This card may look like an ordinary card but when you 'open' it - it looks quite different. It looks like this:
This is an 'easel card'. Here it is from the front when open:
This is my 'card in a box' card some of my Creative Stampers team members created at our recent holiday get together. A gathering at my house during the school holidays when children are welcome to come too. The kids play happily in our rumpus room and in the back yard while we all create the 'cards in box' that all the participants bring along. It is always a fun day for the kids and the adults! If you would like to join my team and come along next school holidays just contact me. There is a great promotion starting soon for joining Stampin' Up! - you will get an extra free stamp set to the value of $79.95. Contact me if you are interested in finding out the details.
I think my creation is so 'girly' because I needed to express my feminine side having been home with my two boys for all of the school holidays (and my husband for a lot of that time too!). Not that I don't love having them home with me (because I do!) - just that I needed a bit of pink in my day, for a change!
I will be creating another easel card and a joy fold card for my first card making classes of the year on Thursday 11 February at either 10am or 7.30pm. If you would like to book your place please contact me on (02) 45 777 504 or 0408 657 258 or email me at jocam_wassens@hotmail.com
Happy Stamping!
