Stampin' Up! Painter's Palette is an awesome addition to anyone's stamp collection. The easel can be popped up, used as an easel frame, picture frame and more...But first to launch the new Stampin' Up! catalogue I wanted something a little fun - still keeping it simple (KISS the theme of the launch) but fun...a shaker card on a gate fold...

First I divided the length of the card stock by 4 and scored at 1/4 and 3/4 of the measurement eg if the card length was 8" score at 2" and 6". In the land of Oz our cardstock is a different measurement to that in US. Fold these two flaps over and there is your gate fold - yep that easy! Then I stamped the cover with the background stamp "Hardwood" x Stampin' Up! holding the flaps together with a strip of washi tape that I knew (once removed) would be covered with the easel.

I assembled the easel as a shaker card but I wanted to include the technique of masking and so... the Thinking of You on the easel with grass in the background. On a simpler note...
