Easel box natalizia

Mi piacciono molto le easel box, ma non ne avevo mai fatta una.
Ieri ne ho preparate tre, tutte molto diverse l'una dall'altra e oggi vi mostro la prima. :D
Mi sono divertita molto!! Trovo che siano molto utili per contenere un piccolo pensiero, sono di facile realizzazione e non ci vuole molto tempo per costruirle.
Per questa easel box ho utilizzato le misure del tutorial di Beccy Place (grazie Carol per l'ispirazione e il link).  :) 
Ho riciclato una vecchia cartolina commerciale con dei pupazzi di neve e molto glitter, l'ho ritagliata e l'ho usata come topper. Era un peccato buttarla via! :D
Mentre usavo la taglierina ho inavvertitamente spostato la mano che teneva ferma la carta, così il bordo superiore del topper non era venuto diritto.  :(
Allora ho incollato due strisce ondulate fatte con una fustella Apple Blossom per creare un bordo curvo in alto. Mi piace anche più di prima :D
Però poi ho anche sbagliato ad incollare le due strisce ondulate tra loro... :( Uffa!
... Allora ho incollato un fiocco di neve nell'angolo per non far notare troppo l'imprecisione. Questo è il retro dopo tutti i miei pasticci.
La scritta Buon Natale è fatta con una fustella Sizzix e un ritaglio di carta olografica. Ho aggiunto un fiocco di neve di foam glitterato e tre gemme rosse.
Con alcune parti del retro della cartolina, che erano decorate, ho realizzato il cerchio che tiene ferma la card aperta: ho usato due punch per tagliare e del foam per dare spessore.
Altre due strisce avanzate le ho messe sul frontale e all'interno del cassetto.
Come maniglia per aprire il cassettino ho usato un campanellino rosso metallico attaccato ad un nastro.

Con questo progetto vorrei partecipare ai seguenti challenges:

Che bello, questo progetto. Belli gli abbinamenti, le carte, il campanellino e gli escamotage per rimediare.
