40th Birthday Mini Easel Favour

This is the “card” I made for The Lovely Laura’s recent 40th birthday.  To be honest, there were no great shakes in putting it together.

I used a wooden easel (bought on eBay from China), a tin birthday cake embellishment, scraps of gingham paper, and a small length of silver thread.

I started by making the bunting to go along the shelf and top of the easel.

Which I then glued onto the easel itself.

I then added the birthday cake to which I stuck a foam pad on the back for a little extra dimension.

The sentiment was done using a fine tipped, white Posca pen.  I also added self adhesive numbers on the cake, which looked rather flat so I added a little Ranger Glossy Accents to help it stand out a little more.

Then came all the fiddle fart, some tiny silver stars and clusters of three white dots to fill the background and join everything together, plus the extra bunting at the top.

As I said no great crafting shakes, but something (without the numbers) I could make a few of at one sitting, so I am never get caught without a card.

  1. This is so much more fun than a card. I think your easel creations are such a personal way to remember a special occasion.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
