Scalloped Easle Cards for Kids

I have really got into these scalloped edge easle cards , they're so easy when you know how to to create them. on this one I used one of the dinosaurs from the Dinoroar stamp set from stampin' up. This stamp set is just so cute. I love it.

For the next card I used a bunny from the new easter stampset from stampin'up called happy easter everybunny.  I punch a flower and glued it to the base of my card as a stopper to prevent thecard from sliding down.

This one is not quite finished but I thought I would give you some ideas of stamp sets that work with this design of card. I used the cupcake from  the crazy for cupcakes stamp set again from stampin' up.
I was asked to  make a princess card, Not having a princess stamp set I decided to draw my own, I then scannned her into the computer , so I can now print her off any size I like. I can also print her off using a laser printer so she can be hot foiled either before or after she has been coloured. This is a practise one as the little girl I am  doing this for loves pink. I will post that when it's finished.

Jelly bean box



I made a box......and the lid fitted the base. It's not very often that happens.
Remember my jelly bean card ...... Well, because it has a plastic cup on the front it won't fit into a standard envelope. So I thought I would make a box for it. Stampin up do cushioned envelopes for cards using this cups, but I really want to use one

Inside the pink card.


Because this card is so big and I don't have any huge pieces of paper to make an insert
(and if I did it wouldn't fit through my printer.)
I mounted layers of the same paper/card/ foils, as on the front of the card, the top layer was obviously the greeting I printed on my pc.
I added peel off borders and corners.
I won't put a photo of the front of the pink version on here. But I will say, I did the pram in a white and pink floral paper and it worked well.
