Hi there, and welcome! Whether you’re here for inspiration, ideas, or just a creative escape—I’m so happy you’ve stopped by.
On Friday’s Live with Michele I created the last of my study of Easel Cards—this one a Swing Easel Card—again featuring the Christmas Tags & More Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper by Stampin’ Up!®.
The Swing Easel Card features a clever mechanism created with a combination of folds and precise cuts using your trimmer. When scoring and cutting, take extra care not to slice through the mechanism itself—as I’ve accidentally done more than once! I found it really helpful to lightly mark the sections that shouldn’t be cut before starting.
If you’d prefer a smaller swing section, simply widen the border when you make your cuts. This gives you greater control over the size and look of the finished card.
Want to see the process in action? Watch the video below where I walk you through all my tips and tricks.
