Default Easel Card

I've searched and can't find the thread that talked about how to make the card that stands up--think it's called an easel card. I want directions to make one that isn't square. TIA

Here's the challenge thread about Easel cards:

Forums at Splitcoaststampers

The rule of thumb is that your base needs to be double the size of your image panel.
So while the example in tutorial in the challenge link is 4 x 4, you can make any size card if you double the image panel to create the base. Example: say you want your card to be an A2 when folded up, your image panel would be 4.25 x 5.5. You would want your longer piece to be 4.25 x 11 for a portrait layout. Then you will want to score at 2.75 and 5.5 on the base to create the fold to attach your image panel.

I know how to make the easel card and I used to have directions on a small square that I put in with the card so people know how to stand it up right. Does anyone still have that??? I would love it, please??? Thanks!

Thanks. I know how to make the Easel card---I wanted the paper to put inside the card when it is mailed so others know how to stand them. I got that in posts above. But thanks.
