Happy Birthday Heart Triple Easel Card
Follow the template instructions to cut out the 3 card bases and the rectangle label from kraft cardstock. Score and fold the fold lines on all the bases.
Large base: Cut 4 3/8" x 2 1/2" of purple texture paper and ink the edges using Jet Black Stazon and a cosmetic sponge. About 1/2" from the top, place a row of large Brass Jewel Dazzles across the rectangle, 1/2" from the top edge. Space the Jewel Dazzles about 1/4" apart. Place medium Jewel Dazzles slightly above the large ones, in between each large Jewel Dazzle as shown. Place small Jewel Dazzles slightly below and in between the large ones as shown. Trim any Dazzles to fit as needed. Fold the large base closed with the fold at the top. Glue the decorated rectangle centered on the top section (above the middle score line) of the base, so that about 1/16" of kraft cardstock is showing around the edges (like a mat). Ink the edges of 4 1/4" x 5 3/8" of yellow/green tile pattern. Open the base and glue centered to the inner panel. Medium base: Cut 3 1/4" x 1 1/2" of purple floral paper and ink the edges. Fold the medium base closed with the fold at the top. Glue the floral rectangle centered on the top section (above the middle score line) of the base. Ink the edges of 3 1/8" x 3 3/8" of postcard pattern paper. Open the base and glue centered to the inner panel. Small base: Ink the edges of 2 1/8" x 2" of blue watercolor paper. Open the base and glue centered to the inner panel .
Large heart: Cut the large heart from vertical striped paper. Trace the small heart in the center of the large and cut out. Ink the inner and outer edges of the heart frame. Glue to blue cardstock from the Princess cardstock and cut out with a 1/16" border. Swipe over the middle of the heart with the Perfect Printing Pouch (or embossing pouch). Stamp "Happy Birthday" in the center with Versamark and emboss with Black Super Fine Embossing Powder. Place small Brass Jewel Dazzles around the perimeter of the inner blue heart, each about 1/4" apart, as shown. Tie a small bow from yellow crepe ribbon and glue to the top left of the greeting with a medium Zot.
Medium heart: Cut the medium heart from dark purple watercolor. Trace the small heart in the center of the medium and cut out. Ink the inner and outer edges of the heart frame. Glue to lime green cardstock from the Princess cardstock and cut out with a 1/16" border. Swipe over the middle of the heart with the Perfect Printing Pouch. Stamp the sentiment in the center with Versamark and emboss with Black Super Fine Embossing Powder. Place Brass Jewel Dazzles around the perimeter of the outer blue heart frame, each about 1/8" apart, as shown.
Small heart: Cut the small heart from purple floral with a white flower in the center. Ink the outer edges of the heart. Mat on purple cardstock from the Princess cardstock leaving a 1/16" border. Cut out an identical white flower from the patterned paper and cover completely with Versamark ink . Emboss the entire flower using Kaleidoscope embossing powder. Foam tape the sparkly flower over the existing flower. Place some Brass Jewel Dazzles coming out from the flower in 3 directions, as shown.
Assembly and covering the base: Assemble all the pieces (except the stopper) of the Triple Heart Easel card according to the template instructions.
Stopper (rectangle label): Cut the rectangle label (on the template) from green watercolor and ink the edges. Swipe over it with a Perfect Printing Pouch. With Versamark ink, stamp 5 sets of cupcakes in a row, centered on the rectangle. Mat this on kraft cardstock with a 1/16" border. Foam tape to the card centered, 1/2" from the bottom edge.
On the back of the card: Close the card and turn it to the back. Stamp "Handmade by…" centered, 1 1/8" from the bottom. Don't forget to sign your name in the stamp.
