Easel card design for table card placement

The inspiration came after the workshop today. Someone is considering of having a souvenir gave away and at the same time something that can be used at a celebration. The label can obviously be changed as desired but this is a design that I thought is a winner. 

So this can also be labeled for the party it's intended. 

My signature calling card

I have been working on a design of a calling card that will be nice to leave to someone who hosts a party or worshop for me. I want something that will stand out and that it can be left on a table and someone will be curious to pick it up and read my name. This process had taken me a number of trials with the size and how to make one was the challenge in designing the card.  I wanted something with the punched out flower to give the 3D effect but I also want it to be collapsible so it can be easy to store and/or put in an envelop.  So a collapsible cuboid with flower on it was created. I love the versatility of flower shop and heart punch for making leaves and the size of the flower was a big factor in deciding how many flower should be attached. I wanted it to look full but keeping in mind that too many flowers will restrict the cube to be collapsible.

I have definitely enjoyed the process as I went through series of making collapsible cube and just couldn't get the right combination of dimensions until I finally hit the jackpot. 

So here it is , my very own 3D calling card. 

Birthday cards for two

Two birthdays this week......, and we can't make it for the combined dinner celebration.

I'm pretty sure the celebrants will still enjoy our presence through this card.

I have been playing around with easel card design and square base easel is just stunning. It's full of versatility to allow someone's creativity to run wild. 

I just love how the square base easel card had turned out.

 

Equally stunning is the other easel card.

My next challenge is to use the standard size card 6.5" x 4.5" into an easel card without making a new dimension for an envelop. I will keep you all posted.

Christmas sweet boxes

Christmas functions are lined up now and social calendar is getting full. So it's time to share to others what could be the only sweet way of saying thanks for the year it has been. 

So here are cute sweet boxes that I sure will go down pretty well.

Sunshine inspiration

It's a windy and very bleak day and what should come to mind for inspiration? Yes you guessed it , the big bright sun. It is something you can have in days like this, the image of a bright sunny day. What a fitting scene that is always breathtaking. So here is the sunny card for a windy, dismal day like this.

Thank you bookmark

I made this bookmark as a token for someone who ordered online. I wanted the thank you token to last longer and inspire this someone to create more and share her ideas to others. The owl builder punch gave the inspiration for this bookmark.

Screen card

This is a very realistic impression of the pine tree, if you love real tree for your Christmas tree then this is the card for you.

The base of the card measures 6" x 12" scored at 3" apart to get the four panels. I'm using the SU ornamental pine stamp set.

Most inspiring exploding box

BSpecial occasions deserve a very special card. Planning and making the design can be the most important factor but once done it simply is astonishing to watch.

     

Time to relax

Taking a time off from my golf doesn't happen a lot. If time allows then it is a bonus to appreciate. 

So here I go.... Thinking of nature and how cool is this creation .... My smiling frog for a 5 year old birthday boy.

Card in a box

A card that is so elegant and looks so pretty is what you get from a card in a box. Make it to suit all occasions. 

Easel card for now

I have designed this easel card as inspired from someone's case at Stampinup connection website. The idea of having a card free standing to be admired and shown to everybody is a great way to express ones gratefulness.
