~ now for the tutorial you have been waiting for ~ 

my 3D Double Easel Card with a shaker clock.

Side look.

A the yummy products used.

First of all I Cut and Scored the card base.

I then cut the layers for the card base and easel.

I then layered them up using 3D tape on the brown and aqua layers.  I then just taped the rest.

I then cut and scored the small easel card base and easel.

Next I cut all the small layering pieces.

I then layered and taped them together.

I then taped the easels to there bases as in the picture.  Next I 3D taped the small easel card on to the big card about 1 inch in.

Time to create the shaker clock so I cut out these pieces from the list above.

I also cut a red clock out as well and used just the numbers.

I used the white clock and  I popped out the numbers and the holes all the way around. I then glued acetate to the back I glued the red numbers in the holes and used the brown hands.

I added a copic coloured pearl to the centre to match Marci's dress. Next I used 3D tape around the back of the clock and popped little crystals in it and the poinsettia aqua circle  on the back to create the shaker. I then layered it on the aqua stitched circle and brown scalloped circle.

I then created a poinsettia using the 2 diecuts. I inked around them in aqua ink and curled the petals using my bone folder. In the center I popped 6 white pearls and 1 red one that fitted on the die cut perfectly. I 3D taped then together in the center.

I then diecut the pinecones and used brown ink around them. I also diecut the pine needles

to embellish the card. I coloured Marci up and she looked Gorgeous in the vintage look colours.

I attached Marci to the small easel card and then embellished the card with all the pieces we diecut.

I finished it off by stamping a Happy Christmas sentiment on the Suitcase Side Layer Die and 3D' it so the small easel could rest against it.
