Quadruple easel card

I have been invited to be a designer for the Decorate to Celebrate challenge blog!!!!  I am thrilled to be part of their super talented team!


The theme is Anything goes, so be sure to link up with us!

Today I am sharing a really cool and fun quadruple easel card! I know right!!!??  I found the tutorial on you tube.  I recently bought this Happy Day paper stack and have been using it like crazy and decided to base this card on the tea cup paper.  I found the tea cups and tea bag svg files in the SIL store

So this is what the card looks like when it's closed.  I added the extra squares to the top because I wanted it decorated as well.  I just used a font from my library and let my machine write it with the pens then cut it out using an offset.

This is the same view as the first picture, just a bit farther back so you can see how it's open.

Here are the measurements I used for this card: 

the main base piece is 5 1/2 by 5 1/2

the pink layer is 5 1/4 by 5 1/4

2 grey pieces cut at 2 1/2 by 5

8 pieces cut at 2 1/2 by 2 1/2

You don't need to add a stopper to each easel, they stand open with out it.  I added the tea cups to cover the seam between the grey pieces.

Isn't the tea bag adorable?  The file originally has a cute face to put on the bag but I left it off.

Here is a link to the you tube tutorial that I watched.
