If you make Valentine Sweethearts on thin cardboard, with the various frames I have shared, (and will continue to share for a few more days), you might discover that a couple of easels will be helpful when you are arranging your Sweethearts:
Use my printables to craft 2 romantic Paper Easels:
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Print out the front and back pages
- Glue them together with spray glue, let the glue dry for a few minutes.
- Cut the two easels apart
- Score along the middle lines
- Fold and press into a sharp fold
- Use some paper clips or little clothes clips to to hold your two sides of the easel firmly together, while you cut it out.
- I also inked the edges, for a more vintage, worn look.
- Place your Sweethearts, or other paper treasures, on the easels and enjoy 🙂
If the image you want to display is heavy, you can make the easels more solid by sandwiching a piece of thin cardboard (cereal box) between the front and back layers when you are glueing them together.
Find your high quality copies of the files in the download folder, free for your personal use and enjoyment 🙂

I have used elements from the following source for this design:
Thanks Gunnvor. I’ve made this from plain card before but much prefer these lovely music paper ones. Far prettier!
YAY! I’m very happy that you like my idea Hunny, please let me know what you use if for, if you get around to it 😀 xoxoxo
I love the stand. Thank you
Thank you Sweetie! I know I could use these in nearly all my various spaces around the house where I’m displaying stuff…lol After all most of my decorations are… paper! lol xoxoxo
Love this. Thank you for all your lovelies.
Thank you Donna 🙂 I’m hoping you find many printables that are useful to you here on WoW 🙂 xoxoxo
Thank you! Your so kind to share your lovely ideas with us!
Awww, thank you Sally 🙂 I love coming up with solutions to my projects, and when I do, I will of course share with my peeps here on WoW 🙂 xoxoxo
Practical as well as pretty! Thank you!!
Thank you for leaving a comment Sarah 🙂 I hope you will enjoy making these, and using them in your vintage displays 🙂 xoxoxo
This is great. this will be on my ‘to do’ list tomorrow. thank you so much for sharing.
I’m trying to limit myself and not make too many, they are just so cute, and go well “anywhere”…lol xoxoxo
Thanks sooo much for these too sweetie, they´re just perfect for any cardmaker to display the cards we make and the ones, that we occasionally recieve from others too, I alrready have some dies, that cut out some of these stands, but nothing like this thoug, so it´ll definitely go wioth some of my shabby shic or vintage cards too.
Do you mind I share this on the forum here, where I´m hosting a scrap evening for all the members here wednesday night on the forum??? If it´s okay with you, I´ll put up a link there for all of them to go and see this here?
Awww, of course you can share the easels Hunny! Give them all my best, and tell them that I’ll be happy to customize them for your peeps if there are any special request! I can replace the sheet music, change the colors, choose another shape to cut out… you name it! And if someone wants a larger stand (to make with a cardboard core) I can even blow up the design so 1 A4 page will make only one easel! Please enjoy yourselves on the scrap evening, and let me know if my easel is useful to anyone for their projects. xoxoxo
Thanks sooo much sweetie, I´m pretty sure, they´ll just love this, and I´ll give them your sweet offer to resize it and even change the color, if anybody want that, but as most of us is much into shabby chic and ordinary vintage stuff, and I know, many just love the notes, I´m pretty sure, they´re going to just love this as it is, but I´ll let you know, if anybody would like something different.
Have a great week now sweet lady.
