Funky Folds Hop ! ~ May 2026
Welcome to my Corner of the World

Welcome to my Corner of the World
As I explain in my video today, I wanted to create a masculine card using the graceful leaf die from the Nature’s Symphony Die Set. I started with a square card base and built up from there. As I was working I mused about creating a 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 card using the same supplies and equipment and using some of the ‘leftovers’ from my first card. I went ahead and made one have included that in this post!
