Simple Fancy Fold Cards

 

So today I am showing you a this fancy fold card. It is easy to make and you can make different shapes with it as you can see in the card below. You fold your card base in half and then cut off part of the front panel. Then you add masking tape to all the edges. You then place a stencil of your choice (I used one from Waffle Flower) and ink it up. After you have finished with the stencil remove it and then carefully remove the masking tape. And then when you open the car up you can see the partially inked parts on the inside. To finish it I added a a die cut sentiment that I have put on some foam tape for a bit of dimensions. To finish it up I added some pearls.

And here is my other sample:

Guest Designer Card

Today I can show my card that I made being a guest designer over at the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown March Sketch Challenge. 

Ofcourse I followed the sketch. I embossed the green panel with a Christmas embossing folder. I added to banners using a large banner punch by Vaessen Creative. I used an image from Creative Fabrica that I printed and made a crochet border around the image with some white crochet yarn. I made the sentiment that I printed onto black cardstock with my laserprinter and then foiled it with gold foil into my laminator. I also added a stitched edge on the green panel. I used gold metallic thread. That bit took the longest to complete on the card.

So play along this month and let's see your wonderful creations

I will be entering this in the following challenges:
Merry Little Christmas #61: Anything Goes
