This is where I put my cards, and other paper crafts. I hope my blog inspires you to create too!

Asian Inspired Quad Twisted Easel Card
I used this Asian stamp set from Fiskars to make an Asian Inspired quad twisted easel card. This is a side view showing the peace and love stamps from the set.
This side shows a lantern and the happiness stamp.
This is the card from above.
This is how the card looks closed.
I used black CS, gold mirror card, some more of the red art paper, and some origami paper from my stash. The stamping was done with VersaMark, and was embossed with gold EP. The red squares were cut with a Spellbinders die, and a gold outline was made with a gold Gellyroll pen. The origami paper was also cut with the same die and outlined in gold. The whole card was mounted onto a white square card which opens to write inside.

Christmas Quad Twisted Easel Card
It's been a long time since I made a quad twisted easel card, so I dug out some of my older JustRite stamps. These older two inch stamps are the perfect size for this type of card.
The top photo shows the card folded flat for mailing.
This is a view from the top looking down at the card, and the following photos show how the card looks from each side as you turn it.
Each color, and both the frame and the center design are on different layers, and I outlined each one with gold. I meant to mount the little center design dimensionally on each one, but after I finished the first little easel, I forgot and mounted it flush with the card, so I had to do them all that way.

You Are My Anchor Quad Easel Card

Originally I was making this for the latest JustRite Challenge, but when I picked everything out and looked at it all together, I liked it, so I couldn't bear to do anything else with it. The challenge is a vintage masculine card, and there is nothing vintage about my card, so I'm not entering this one, but I wanted to post it on my blog anyway. The top photo is the card closed.
This Photo is the card from the top, and the photos below show the card from each side.
I used the discontinued You Are My Anchor set from JustRite. There were so many wonderful sayings in this set to let a man know just how much he means to you.

Quad Twisted Easel Card
I made this card from this tutorial.
The top picture is what it looks like closed. Ooops, I just noticed, I photographed the card so the saying upside down. It's not upside down if you hold the card in the right direction!
This photo is from the top while it is open.
As you turn the card, each side shows a beautiful Birthday bouquet.
All DP and die cuts are K&Co, and the sentiment is Anna Griffin.
