Hey everybody, happy Thursday! I hope you’re having a great week! I have another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share with you today featuring papers, stamps and dies from the new Best Friends collection. I’ve made a couple of these accordion gate fold cards now (inspiration came from Lisa Curcio’s blog) and I have to say that it’s definitely on my top 10 list! It’s so fun and really packs a punch!

I cut the card base and accordion panel from CutCardStock Lessebo Cherry Red cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Best Friends 12×12 Collection Pack. I stamped several images from the Best Friends Collection Stamps, colored them with alcohol markers, and cut them with the coordinating Outline Dies. I stamped a sentiment from the same stamp set and fussy cut it. I stamped a couple hearts in Catherine Pooler Rockin’ Red ink and popped the bone up on an adhesive foam square.

I cut the inside sentiment panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and added another sentiment from the same stamp set (stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink) which completed the card.

And one final shot from overhead so you can see the cool construction of this fun fold! LOVE it!

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
