Diamond Pop-up Easel Card

I was on a Blog Hop by “DigitalStamps 4 Joy” when I came across this wonderful Diamond Pop-up Easel Card on Desire Fourine's blog "Doing Life". It is just too good not to pass on to you!

Desire has a tutorial on making the delightful folded flower embellishment that her card features on the front of the card, and a link to the complete Diamond Pop-up Easel Card making tutorial on Yvonne’s blog called “Card Art Tutorials”.

  

 

Yvonne's card had a completely different look/style. The personality of the artist really shows through in both creations! Here is what Yvonne’s finished card looked like...

I know that this post has nothing to do with printables, spectacular or otherwise, but I just thought that it was such a fun, low cost idea that I just had to share it!
