Ever wanted to give someone a photo and couldn't think of a good way to present it? Making Easel Cards may be the solution. They allow you to send someone a special and memorable gift that may be displayed for months after it is received, or it may even be incorporated into your friend's scrapbook album after she has admired it for awhile.
I made some special Christmas ones for a friend one year with pictures of her entire family on them. She was very pleased to have them and said they were well received by her family.
These greetings would be great to send as a thank you after a special event like a wedding or the birth of a baby, a graduation celebration or to help celebrate or commemorate any other special event.
Don't forget to decorate your envelope as well. If you need a different sized envelope due to the size of your photo, remember you can always custom make one to suit your greeting, or make one with the Envelope Punch Board from Stampin' Up! Click on the catalogue link in the right hand column to check and see if it is still available.
You can also make other types of greetings using this format, such as this Birthday card that uses a star shape, and here's a Wedding Greeting with a Western theme. Make it work for you!
I especially like them with photos as they make such a lovely keepsake you can have on display.
If you would like to see another example of a birthday card made with this card design this one is made in a totally different style.
I have some other samples for you which I have placed below. These cards make great birthday cards, thank you cards and cards for all occasions. I made two birthday greetings and a thank you one as well. I love the Owl Builder Punch. I hope Stampin' Up! never retires it!
