A Taste of Veranda

I just love the Veranda paper  from CTMH. The colors are so beautiful together. It is made up of Creme Brulee, Cocoa, Garden Green, and Juniper.
I also have wanted to try the Easel Card. So I thought why not put the two together and make this card. I also used the So Sweet stamp set.
I hope you like it.
To make the size  card I made  start with cardstock 4 1/4 x 8 1/2. Score at 4 1/4 and 6 3/8. This will make a 4 1/4 square card. You can also make this card in different sizes. I will make them and be back to show you those also. Fold your card in half and then fold the other score line the opposite way. Now add strong adhesive like Scor Tape to this flap.  Add a 4 1/4 square cardstock  on top of that.  You now have the base of a Ease card. Decorate the front  and inside. When doing the inside you need to add layers or an embellishment about 1/3 up. That's it! You can make this style for any event or theme.
I made mine to send to a friend to brighten her days while she is recuperating. I hope she doesn't see it here before it arrives in the mail. Shhh....
