Today’s card was inspired by Connie Stewart – it is a very impressive fun fold but as with all these things, very easy to do when you know how! It features the Earthen Textures Stamp Set and coordinating dies and I have a video to show how the pieces all come together………. enjoy!

My card today has taken some double sided decorative paper and created a twisted ribbon effect, it was a lot of fun to do and remarkably easy – things usually are when you know to do them.

I used the Healing Hugs stamp set to create this ‘get well soon’ card in nice bold Night of Navy and Mango Melody colors. I think by simply changing out the greeting you could use this design for thank you, birthday or simply ‘just because’!
Continue readingI so love fancy/fun fold cards, even after nearly 10 years as a demonstrator I still am in awe on what you can do with a piece of card stock!!
