The first set of measurements and instructions pertain to the "Father's Day" z-card easel on the left. The second set of measurements and instructions are for the "Birthday" card on the right.
Measurements:
• Two 4¼" x 11" Basic Black Cardstock. Score one at 2 ¾" and 5 ½". Score the other at just 5 ½".
• Two 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" Basic White Cardstock
• 4-1/8" x 2-5/8" Basic White Cardstock
• 5 x 3½" Basic White Cardstock
• 4 x 5¼" DSP and 4 x 2½" DSP
• Scraps of Night of Navy, Poppy Parade, and Basic Gray
Glue the large piece of the z-fold to the front of the single fold card.
Glue the two 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" Basic White Cardstock to the front and the inside of the large easel.
Add the 4-1/8" x 2-5/8" Basic White Cardstock to the front of the z-card.
Add the DSP to the two white pieces of cardstock you adhered to the fronts of the easels.
Use the 4th largest scallop die of the scallop Contour Dies to cut out the 5 x 3½" Basic White Cardstock.
Use Memento Tuxedo Black ink to stamp the front of the lower portion of the scallop.
Stamp the large bow tie onto the Night of Navy cs with Whisper White Craft Stampin Pad; Poppy Parade Stampin' Ink onto Poppy Parade cs; Memento Black ink onto the Basic Gray cs.
Die-cut the bow ties and adhere them to the scallop with Dimensionals.
Adhere the scallop to the front of the card front, being careful not to add glue beyond the edge of the front flap, so you do not glue the easel shut.
Measurements for the Birthday card on the right.
• 5½" x 8½" Thick Basic White Cardstock scored at 4¼".
• 2 ¾" x 4" Thick Basic White Cardstock for the scallop.
• Cut in 1¼" from each side of the card base only to the 4¼" scoreline. (Please watch the video if you need a clearer understanding.)
• Score the center flap of the card base at 2⅛", this creates the pop up.
• 4¼" x 5⅜" DSP
• Two 1⅛" x 4⅛" DSP
• Two 2" x 2⅝" DSP (I used a light gray DSP)
• Scraps of Night of Navy, Poppy Parade, and Basic Gray
Add the largest piece of DSP inside the card first.
Glue down the two strips on each side then add DSP on top.
Add the two 2" x 2⅝" DSP to the front of the card.
Use the 3rd largest scallop die of the scallop Contour Dies to cut out the 2 ¾" x 4" Basic White Cardstock.
Use Memento Tuxedo Black ink to stamp the front of the upper portion of the scallop.
Stamp the large bow tie onto the Night of Navy cs with Whisper White Craft Stampin Pad; Poppy Parade Stampin' Ink onto Poppy Parade cs; Memento Black ink onto the Basic Gray cs.
Die-cut the bow ties and adhere them to the scallop with Dimensionals.
Adhere the scallop to the front of the card front, being careful not to add glue beyond the edge of the front flap, so you do not glue the easel shut.
