My Festive Tidings Easel Card

My Festive Tidings Easel Card - A Christmas Card with houses in a wreath
My Festive Tidings Easel Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again and I am sharing My Festive Tidings Easel Card using the Noel Tidings Bundle and Welcome Noel Bundle from the Neutral Noel Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! 

I was asked by my team leaders to present a holiday fun fold card at a recent virtual play date. I loved the Neutral Noel Suite Collection and decided to use it for my presentation. The Neutral Noel Specialty DSP is gorgeous with its festive patterns and gold foil accents! And those houses!

The Details of My Festive Tidings Easel Card

Since I needed to use a fun fold, I decided to create an easy easel card using the measurements below. Once that was scored and folded, I added the DSP panels to the card base front.

Next, I stamped the sentiment in Pecan Pie and the Deer in Crumb Cake and then both were die cut out. I stamped the smaller tree in Mossy Meadow and die cut it out too. For the inside, I stamped the houses on Basic Beige in Crumb Cake and die cut it out. I love that the die is so long that it cuts the whole piece at once!

For my houses, I die cut the larger one in Pecan Pie and the smaller one in Crumb Cake. Then used scraps of Gold Foil to add to the back to make the windows shine. You could use Crushed Curry and add Wink of Stella, but I wanted to mirror the gold in the DSP. A Mossy Meadow wreath finished off the larger house.

Then, I embossed the Basic Beige piece with the Softly Woven 3D Embossing Folder and used it to create my scene by layering it behind the wreath. I thought the wreath would create a perfect background for my focal point. To add interest, I die cut it twice. Once with Mossy Meadow Card Stock and then with the Mossy Meadow Two-Tone Paper making sure that the lighter side is facing up and on top of the wreath.

The smaller house, sentiment, deer and inside mechanism were the only things popped up. Everything else was adhered down directly to the oval and then the card base. Note: when gluing, make sure to only adhere the oval to the bottom half of the easel.

For my embellishments, I added three Gold Adhesive-Backed Dots to my card to mirror the gold accents.

I hoped you like My Festive Tidings Easel Card!
