Hey Girl Hey

Hey everybody, I hope you’re having a great weekend and doing something fun! I’m up on the Scrapbook Adhesives By 3L blog today sharing a tutorial for making a tall tented easel card. I used some fun papers, stamps and dies in my stash for this delightful friendship card. I employed my new favorite ‘Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside’ technique for the banner and the glittery lines across the base, and of course, used some of the best adhesives in the land to put it all together!

I’ve made quite a few tented easel cards over the years but this is the first tall one I’ve made. I had to tweak the measurements a bit to make it taller so the banner would fit above the bird. Be sure to see my tutorial on the Scrapbook Adhesives blog if you want to learn how to make this taller version. I used E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser, Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix, 3D Foam Squares White Mix and Dual Tip Glue Pen for the assembly.

The card base was cut from CutCardStock Basis 12×12 Aqua cardstock along with layering panels from a print in the Craft Consortium Ink Drops – Vivid Double-Sided 6×6 Paper Pad. The image and sentiments are from the Prickley Pear Stamps Hey Girl Hey stamps and dies, stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink and colored with a variety of markers.

I employed the ‘Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside’ technique to create the banner using the 3D Foam Pennants and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors, along with 3D Foam Micro Squares and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors for the tiny embellishments beside the letters on the pennants. I also used Adhesive Lines and diamond glitter in my stash for the lines across the base which are kind of hard to see in the photos but really add some pretty sparkle.

The inside sentiment panel was cut from Solar White cardstock and another sentiment from the Hey Girl Hey stamp set was stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink. I added an embellishing strip with the glittered lines to the top of the panel to match the base. I’ve included one final side shot so you can see the cool construction. I love how this turned out!
