Happy Friday Everyone! Today I have a super-fun, super-addictive card to share with you. I made this card for a recent challenge, and I had so much fun with it, I made more. Watch for them in future blog posts 😉
The Hippest Hippos and Hippo Dies that you can earn for FREE with your qualifying order, were PERFECT for this Platform Easel Card.
The front just looks like a regular A2 card, right?
Then you open it and viola! a cute little platform pops up!
From the side you can see how the easel props up behind the platform. Cool, eh?
The grass knolls are part of the Hippo Dies.
I took the Natural Woven Ribbon and pulled the bottom strands out. I colored it for the Hippo’s skirt and adhered an uncolored section to the front of the card.
The sentiment was done using the Double Oval Punch and Fun Flower Resin Shapes.
And check out this li’l cutie-that tub, the goggles, snorkel and droplets are all part of the fun die-cuts as well! Don’t delay! Place your order of $100 now so you don’t miss out on this stamp set plus the dies.
Here’s a video so you can see it better and you can see how I use the hippo on the back drop’s feet to catch the first knoll to better stand the card up.
Stay tuned for a future video on how to make this fun card base!!!
HAPPY STAMPING!
