Centre easel card – Charming Day

Centre easel card – Charming Day. I made this centre easel card with Charming Day bundle which is one of the newly released online exclusive suites released in July 25. To create the centre easel, you simply cut the card front on both ends to create 3 sections. Orient the card in landscape, adhere the two outer panels to the card base, leaving the centre panel free. The centre panel will be the easel part of the card.
