Hi All,  I hope you are having a good week. My daughter is going for her first sleepover at her friends house tonight.  They have got a bell tent and there is about 10-15 girls sleeping over.  Oh how fun.  So she asked me to make her a card for the Birthday Girl, she loves cats. I decided to make her this Triple Point Easel card, 1 because its SOOO easy to do, and 2 because I had the perfect stamp in mind. How adorable are the little baking kittens and it folds down flat to fit into a 6" x 6" envelope What I Used: White card stock Designer paper  - from my stash Pink Card stock Your so Sweet Stamp Set  DecoTime Alcohol Markers Guillotine  Scoring board Pencil Glue Check out my full tutorial below to see how i made it Feel free to Visit the Blog | Follow on Pinterest | Follow on Facebook |  Follow on Twitter |Follow on Instagram Subscribe to Pretty Shabby UK
