Cooking Tilda Easel Card

Tuesday, January 26, 2010

Sorry that I have not posted in a couple of days. I am getting ready to give a series of classes at "The Stamping Place" in Columbia, SC. The first class on February 6th, will be "Basic Stampscapes". The students will work with the assembly of the scene, and the coloring methods.


Todays card is a standard easel card, that is 5"X5". It was colored with Copic Marker, of course.
After the card was finished, the cupcake icing was covered with Crystal Laquer to give the icing some shine.

I need to get some cooking stamps for these types of cards. Something to look into.

Center Step Fold

Wednesday, January 20, 2010
Todays card is a variation of the of the Side Step card that I posted last. I call it a Center Step fold. I just took the original design and worked it out to make it a Center Step. The card is a standard size, finished, 41/4" X 5 1/2" so it will fit in a standard envelope.
The Tilda was colored with Copic Markers of course. So without delay, here is the card.

And here is a view from the front;

The card is not hard to make, and is quit dramatic. I have made a diagram of the dimensions , cut lines and fold lines. I havn't figured out how to post it to the blog, but if you will leave me your email address in your comments I will email you a copy.
Hope you enjoy this one.
Have a GREAT DAY!!!

Side Step Birthday Card

Sunday, January 17, 2010

The card that I am posting today, I saw on a web site called "Card-Making-Magic.Com.

The dimensions were all in centimeters, which works, but are hard for me to work with. Then low and behold, one of the Blog that I follow by Sandy Hulsart show her version of the card, with measurements that I could understand, inches. "Thank You Sandy".


So here is my stamp lifted version of the card that I made for a friend.

And here is a better view from the side;

The card of course was colored with Copic Markers and Spica pens. The colors used were;

Icing, RV00, RV02,RV04, Cupcake Paper, E11, E13, E17 and Spica Pens for the decorations.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it.

Have a GREAT DAY!!!
