Step One Circle Easel Card Tutorial

Preparing To Make The Circle Easel Card

First of all fold one white A4 card into half and cut it into a circle shape. Remember that it has to joined a little bit at one edge of the card. If you are die cutting it, place your circle die a little bit out from the folded edge of your card. If you are drawing a circle before cutting it, draw a little bit out from the folded side. After you have cut it, fold one side of the circle into half as in the picture above.

Next cut the other white A4 card without folding the card. Cut it exactly the same size as the first A4 card. But this time you don’t need double, just a single card.

Continue by cutting the pink coloured card. You need two pink circles. Make sure the circle is one size smaller than the white base card. And cut another two circles from the patterned cut. It has to be one size smaller from the pink card.

Sentiment For The Circle Easel Card

Stamp out a sentiment of your choice. And die cut or hand cut the sentiment to make sure it fits into the center of your easel card. I don’t remember where I bought this stamp. Even though its not from a very good quality stamp (it doesn’t stamp very clearly) but I like the message that it carries. “Life Is About Happiness”

Use a double sided foam pad to stick the sentiment at the center as in the picture above (Picture 6). Remember that you only have to place the sentiment on the card that will be at the bottom part of your easel card.
