Pansy Patch - Fun Fold Easel Vertical Card




I love gingham!  I also love the new Pansy Punch Bundle, so when I saw a video by Susan Campfield using both to make this Fun Fold Easel Vertical Card, I knew I wanted to case her card using all three colors which are Pale Papaya, Fresh Freesia, and Soft Succulent.  Susan called the inside of the card a "Kickstand"  because the inside of the card has a small pansy where the front of the card will help it stand like an easel card.  Here are my instructions to make her cards: (Of course, some of the colors will change). 

Stamp Set:  Pansy Patch

Cardstock:  Basic White, Fresh Freesia, Evening Evergreen, Pansy Petal DSP

Ink:  Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather (or Gorgeous Grape), Evening Evergreen, and Soft Succulent

Other:  Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine and/or Mini, Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder, Scalloped Contour Dies, Bone Folder, Tear and Tape, Adhesive Sheet, Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Seal, Glue Dots, and 3/8” Soft Succulent Ribbon

 

1.     The base of the card is Basic White cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” and 2-1/8” to create a mountain fold on the front.  Use the Bone Folder.

2.    The second layers are embossed panels of Basic White cardstock cut at 2” x 5-1/4” Use the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder.  Adhere both of the panels with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to both sides of the card base.

3.    Use the second from the largest Scalloped Contour Dies to die-cut the large Basic White scallop from 3-1/2” x 4-3/4” Basic White cardstock for the front. 

4.    Layer the 2-5/8” x 3-7/8” Pansy Petal DSP Fresh Freesia gingham to the center of the large scalloped with Stampin’ Seal or Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

5.    Adhere Tear and Tape on the back on the left side to adhere to the front of the card.

6.    Die-cut 2-1/3” x 3-1/2” Basic White cardstock using the second from the smallest Scalloped Contour Dies.  Ink up the sentiment “Happy Birthday” or “Thank you” with Fresh Freesia and stamp at the very bottom of the small contour die.

7.    Use the Adhesive Sheets to create the pansy stem and buds using Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, and Basic White.  Adhere together and add to the small contour die.  (When die-cut, this die makes slits in it so you can add ribbon or let cardstock show through.)

8.    Add the ribbon with a Glue Dot to the stem.

9.    For the inside, use the 2-1/2” x 2-1/2” Basic White cardstock and stamp the detailed stamp first with the darkest ink Highland Heather.  Then for the solid inside layer of the pansy, add Fresh Freesia, but stamp off first.  For the leaves, use the darkest ink Evening Evergreen on the Basic White.  Then the solid image using Soft Succulent by stamping off first.  Die-cut them out in the Mini Stampin’ and Cut Machine.   Add a Glue Dot to the front of the leaf to attach to the pansy.  Put Dimensionals on the back and adhere to the inside right side of the card to create a “kickstand” for the easel.
