Crafty Cardmakers Challenge 197 - Fancy Folds
Time for another challenge at Crafty Cardmakers and this fortnight the challenge is 'Fancy Folds'. Hosting this challenge is Margaret. Please note: this particular challenge is for cards only.
I choose this ever so easy center fold . Cut out an eight x six inch piece of cardstock, score vertically at 2, 3, 5 1/2 and 6 1/2 inches and fold accordingly. Cut out a 3 3/4 inch square. This is your card base, decorate as you like. So very easy! I choose to add decorative paper within a brown border., added a colour coordinated flower, some trailing vines and a sentiment cut from a die . I also added a decorative strip to the two one inch stripes that make up the side of center folded part of the card. I adhered the square center piece to the center fold with tape.
This will fold up to a six by 4 1/2 inch card.
Cardstock: Stampin Up 'Bermuda Bay', Early Expresso
Paper;( Discontined) Doodle Pantry
Flower: stash
Dies: Jim Holtz Thinlets for the sentiment, Creative Expressions Craft Dies by Sue Wilson - Petite Vinery, Memory Box 'Grape Vine Border
Please join us with your own fancy fold creations.
