Card Crop: Masculine with Carla

This card is an EASEL card. I like the way it stands. It's a neat little design and not too difficult to make.

Start with an 11" x 4 1/2 piece of cardstock. Score at 5 1/2" (center fold) and also at 2 3/4" up from the bottom. Cut another piece of cardstock 4 1/2" x 5 1/2". This will be the front of the card.

Fold bottom piece of main card part UP as shown.

Add cardstock/patterned paper to the card front and inside. My cs was 4 1/4" x 5 1/4". The pp was 4" x 5".

Add a stamped image to the front of the card.

On the inside, I added a small piece of cardstock (3 1/2" x 2"). The sentiment, I matted and popped it up with popdots. The reason for popping it is so the front of the card can rest against it when the card is opened.

Embellish as desired.
