Steam Tinker 4 Triple EaselCompleted by Margaret McCartney

I printed the two layers of the base onto 220gsm white card and cut these out. I printed the rest of the design onto good quality 255gsm photographic paper and cut out the various elements.

I made the slits on the smaller base where the easel mechanism will fit through and I attached each one to the underside of this smaller base using double sided tape and then attached the base to the larger one using double sided tape.

I assembled each easel topper decoupage using thin foam pads. I then attached each easel topper to the relevant easel using double sided tape. I added the stoppers for each easel to the base using thin foam tape.

I actually used the two smaller elements as the stoppers for the larger element. I finished off by adding the greeting to the base using thin foam pads. This is a gorgeous card and it will fold flat for posting in a 7 x 7 envelope.
