Creative Inking Blog Hop - Good Bye - Forever

05/20/2019

Welcome to the May Creative Inking Blog Hop where we are featuring retiring products. I have a super fun - FUN FOLD for you today! I received a card in the mail using this layout from Cindy Benward and knew I had to give it a try! You'll see Cindy's card in my video. I chose to use one of my favorite retiring bundles - the LEMON ZEST stamp set and although I didn't use the LEMON BUILDER PUNCH for this card - it's a must have to go with the stamp set. Also retiring is the BRIGHTS 6" x 6" DESIGNER SERIES PAPER pack. These packs are so cute - I'm sad to see them go!

I wasn't sure what this card was called so I called it a STAGE card - it seems like the center greeting is on a beautiful stage. After I filmed the video I heard back from Cindy telling me that it's called a Corner Easel card and that totally makes sense right?

You'll find a video tutorial showing you how to make this card here:

This card folds up flat for mailing.

And don't forget to make your envelope look amazing!

I love bright and colorful and this certainly fits the bill. I just know this card is going to cheer up my friend when she gets it. I used Flirty Flamingo for my card base and layers of Whisper White to stamp the images on. My ink colors are Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green and Pineapple Punch.

I hope you'll give it a try - it's not hard.

Here's a picture of the template. Score your 8" x 8" base at 4" on both sides and then at a diagonal from the top center to the middle score line.

The stamped white layers are 3 3/4" x 3 3/4" and then one of them is cut in half diagonally. The Lemon Zest stamp set and the Lemon Builder Punch are both retiring - you can get both of them in my online store - look for the link down below.
