2/28/21 Runner Up Winner at Classic Design Challenge Blog!
Hi friends! A very happy Monday to you! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Mix It Up Challenge Blog and I’m thrilled to share my DT inspiration for MIUCB #46 – Fancy Fold! Our challenges are Anything Goes and we offer an optional technique twist each month just to inspire you, and this month the twist is Fancy Fold! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you. I really appreciate your support! I created another front step card using the awesome Coffee Cup and Tea stamp sets with coordinating Coffee Cup die set from Prickley Pear Stamps! This is one of my new favorite fancy folds and I’ve made several of them. This card was created for the Prickley Pear Stamps Hochanda showcase several months back and was shown on air!
This is a standard A2 size card that folds flat for mailing. The construction is really simple and can easily be altered to make the card a different size.
I created the card base from kraft cardstock and added double-sided patterned paper layers to both base elements. I created the focal element with two die cuts, stamped the sentiment and added the tea die cut with fussy cut tea leaves.
I added a panel cut from Neenah Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock with a die cut Sizzix sentiment to the back.
And one more peek… here’s the card folded flat for mailing. Such a fun design!
