To begin, I cut the bases of my easels using ivory cardstock in a medium weight.

5 1/2" x 11 1/2" - Cut two

Place on scoring board and score at 2 3/4", 5 1/2", and 11. The last 1/2" is used to adhere the pocket.

For the pocket cut ivory cardstock 3" X 6 1/2" and score on both sides at 1/2". The 1/2" on each side will be the gussets which will adhere to the sides of the base. Repeat this for second card or as many cards as you are creating.

For the covers I cut two 51/2" X 5 1/2" from ivory cardstock.

*Note* - These will adhere to the bottom front 2 3/4" portion of the folded base.

 Cuts for mattes and decorative papers

*Note* This cut guide is done per the way I decorated my cards using 2 mattes on my card fronts and pockets. This guide can be adjusted to your preferences.

Covers - 

Matte 1 - 5 3/8" X 5 3/8"

Matte 2 - 5 1/4" X 5 1/4"

Decorative paper -This is done in 2 pieces

2 3/8" X 5 1/8"

Inside (above pocket)-

*Note* Adhere this piece before adhering pocket

2 3/4" X 5 3/8"

Pocket Covers-

Matte 1 - 2 7/8" X 5 3/8'

Matte 2 - 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"

Decorative paper - 2 5/8" X 5 1/8"

For the inserted tags I have used the Square Tags & Clocks die to cut the decorative pieces and adhered them to Graphic 45 Square Tags in kraft. I have also used the metal paper charm clips leaf charms to add a hanging embellishment to my tags.

All of my papers have been edged with Distress Ink in Vintage Photo.

Such a beautiful collection to create with!! I have used flowers, chipboards, stickers, and fussy cuts to embellish mine.

Graphic 45 Raining Cats & Dogs Valentine

Hello and Thanks so much for visiting my blog today!!
As a major lover of all things Graphic 45, I have created a card using one of my all-time favorite collections, Raining Cats & Dogs!

For my card I used the following:

Graphic 45 Raining Cats & Dogs

 6X6 Patterns & Solids

12x12 Paper Pack 

Journaling and Ephemera Cards

Banners Pack

Chipboard Pack

Others:

Cardstock in aqua and rust colors

Black and white gingham ribbon

Aqua flowers

Aqua stick-on pearls

Adhesive

Tim Holtz Distress Ink - rusty hinge

Black card base 5 X6.5

Xyron Mega Runner Tape Gun
Xyron tape runners

Glue stick

Hot glue gun

All of the parts cut and laid out for assembly.

All paper edges were lightly distressed with a paper distressing tool and then dyed using Distress Ink in rusty hinge. All pieces were layered and adhered to the card base with mega runner gun. The focal ephemera card (girl with puppy) I adhered to rust cardstock using my Xyron create-a-sticker machine (if you do not have this machine you can also use another adhesive such as a glue stick) and then foam squares to the back for dimension. The "Love is a four-legged word" oval chipboard also adhered with foam squares. Flowers and ribbon were adhered using hot glue.

For the inside, I adhered paper layers with mega runner gun. The lucky dog stamp was cut from the Mr. Whiskers page in the 12x12 paper pack.

I created this card for the challenge at Frilly and Funkie - All you need is love theme
