I don't have a DT card for OSAAT this week as I did not receive an image to play with so I thought I would post a recent card I made for my Mum's partner Tony for his 70th Birthday.
He is an avid bird watcher so I thought I would make a card with digi images of 2 owls and 2 birds, I downloaded the free images ages ago from Craft Gossip and thought I would make my very first quad easel card.
First of all I made a base card out of A3 card, it measured approx 8.5 x 8.5 inches and then covered it with some pretty papers from the new Summers End Nitwit Collection.
I then made 4 slanted easel cards from card measuring 8 x 4 inches to start and then added the images to the 4 easel cards after matting and layering onto some brown paper and more patterned paper and then just stuck them onto the top of the base card.
I printed off 4 labels from the summers end collection after adding the words Happy, 70th, Birthday and Tony onto them in word and stuck on the base card, they don't need to act as stoppers for the easels as the way they are displayed upright they support each other in the right position.
I then added some brown Card Candy from Craftwork cards to each image square and the base to finish it off.
I am going to enter this card into the following challenges
Creative Card Crew Easel Cards
Deep Ocean Happy Birthday
Oldie but goodie One for the boys
Partytime Tuesdays Anything Goes

Julie, this is incredible, it must have taken hours! Love the masculine images, male cards are so hard to do, and here youve made a four in one! I bet he is tickled pink by this, so thoughtful of you to go the extra mile.
