Thank you Maymay!!! I have been watching your videos for a very long time and have had to make a you tube account so that I could leave a comment. I know you always say you are a girl that likes tools, if there's a tool for it you use it. Well, I purchased an easel cutting die - I haven't used any of the easels I cut out with it, I have found the card falls over!!!! I find myself rewatching this video and making my own easels so thank you for your way of making things easy to follow and always, always giving your viewer options.. Thank you

Thank you for these ideas. I need an easel for this year's card for my partner and number 3 seems like the perfect one for this. You make it seem so easy! I will certainly be making at least one of these this year. Thanks again. Best easel video I have found
@judymathena29814 жыл бұрын
great idea, I liked the last two. I like the idea for the stand on the card for a scene or 3D card, and a shadow box card would look good with that easel.

Thank you for this tutorial! It was a lifesaver. I was making mini slim line cards and I mistakenly cut my designer 🧑🎨 paper vertically instead of horizontally. Thus, I needed to make them stand up. So I followed your instructions, maintaining your measurements, and trimmed the sides to fit the card base. I tried to share it on your page but was unable to do so. Thanks again. 🥰

Hello! I love this idea! Its perfect to encourage the recipients not to toss the card or stash it away in the junk/keepsake drawer. I would have traced the original one on a folded piece of card stock and cut it out as i don't trust my freehand skills lol Tfs!

Hi Maymay, just a little idea for the first easel. If you add another "foot" to the other end of the s-line, you'll end up with two slightly smaller easels. This way you'll get eight easels out of one piece of cardstock and close to no scrap paper. Thank you for the video, I will definitely add easels to my cards from now on =D.

I LOVE the idea. I went on Cricut Design Space and designed one using the first sample you showed. Using circles, rectangles, half circles, slicing, welding and there it was. I can cut many of them out at the same time. I went a little further and designed the circle with a butterfly, gear, deer, tree, leaf and you could add anything as long as you use a negative space. Took me a little while to figure it out. But the idea is endless. THANK YOU for the idea. Now my cards can be displayed in a cute way.

This was a great tutorial, what a fantastic little added ride along for cards, the only thing I would have loved more, was you putting out a pattern for the first one, I love to craft, but cannot draw worth a darn....love your shows, would not miss one, even when I recently had the flu, have also purchased many of the products you recommend and love your store, my favorite thing about your shows are the love that is so evident between you and Vinnie
