Step by Step Instructions on Making an Easel Card

I planned to do this class in March, but unless you live under a rock, you know that all classes everywhere have been cancelled or postponed due to the COVID19 virus. Since you can’t come to me and my table, I thought I would bring the class to you as a PDF: Easel Card & Tag step by step directions. I would appreciate your feedback and comments on my instructions for clarity and understanding as this is the first PDF I have ever created.

This is a fun card to create and you can change up the stamps, paper and sentiments to suit your card giving needs. Feel free to bookmark this page so you can refer to it often. I listed the supplies I used with links to make it easier for ordering in case you would like to purchase any of the supplies.
