Tutorial for a cake easel card?

[SShannaS]

Okay so I have been seeing these amazing cake cards. I can only find one tutorial and it is awesome but I cannot take my computer up and down and up and down while trying to make it. It is extrememly long to print lol 31 pages. Does anyone know of any good cake card tutorials that also include the candle box that goes next to it?

I've never seen or heard of this type of card so went looking and found the following
tutorial:

I'm going to give this a try myself! Have fun.

Yeah this is the only one I can find. I may just have to quarantine myself in my room and bring down paper and glue so I can read and copy off my computer. This is the only one I can find but I see so many cards that create this just no one can tell me how lol. Good luck and I would love to see what yours looks like after!

Wow! I just had a look at the above link. Those cards are lovely!
Just a thought... you could use an empty ribbon reel for the cake. Choose one that is made out of a light CS, is a suitable size or maybe cut it down a little. It might be easier to decorate and attach the reel to your card base than trying to make a reel/cake shape.

Sharon I was thinking the same thing....great minds think alike! LOL!!!

I like that idea. I'm waiting for my craft stuff to make it to me so I card try the card. I have been thinking of maybe paper mached things like fruit slices. I want to make some summer, sunny, bbq, pool like cards.

I looked at the directions, and here's what I did:

I use Word and select (copy) the instructions from the blog, and then paste into Word. From there, for this one, I selected and cut the text in the foreign language, leaving only the English text. I resized the pics and I ended up with a tutorial that is only 14 pages. It actually could have been shorter, if I had made my pics smaller.

Also, the tip on using an empty ribbon spool sounds really good to me!
