Desktop Photo Holder with Easel by Karthikha Balasubramanian

Hello Everyone,

This side Karthikha Balasubramanian, today on Prika’s blog sharing my first entry for this month blog challenge-”Birthday Celebrations”…making a Desktop Photo Holder with Easel.

I’ve used Bob N Betty butterfly theme paper pack mainly along with black cardstock. For the main panel, I’ve a black diecut from Gina Marie Stiched Scallop Circles, matted with the same pattern paper. The bottom has a small panel that acts as the photo holder. Tiny butterflies are from Itsy Bitsy and the entire panel is bordered using yellow gold pearls.

The sentiment is handwritten as per my client’s requirement on a rectangle sheet blended with Distress ink — Picked Raspberry. It is then matted onto a Gina Marie Stitched Scallop Rectangle diecut to give the frame look. I added a few off-white pearls for more interest.

For the handle of the drawers, I’ve used a flower brad from Itsy Bitsy, removed the brad and just used the flower. I attached a pink bead using a headpin and inserted into the flower, folded the wire inside similar to a brad. That forms a beautiful handle for the drawers :)

The inside of the drawers are also matted with the same patterned paper and stamped a few butterflies from a Kaisercraft butterfly stampset, using Versafine Black Onyx ink and Distress Ink — Seedless Preserves. I hope you like my creation :)

Here are few more close up pictures for the project:
