Corner Pop Up Card

The current Butterfly Challenge is for a corner pop up card. This is not a shape I have tried before and didn't quite get my scorelines lined up properly, but it worked-just!

I used some Calypso Coral card as the base. All the papers are snippets from my scrapbooking. The chipboard flower has been languishing in my stock for a long time. I think it was part of a bundle of scrapbooking items from QVC. The butterflies are again using my favourite butterfly punch from SU. I added three rhinestones to each after colouring them with a black Copic pen.So for this challenge I have used the shape, coral, citron, crimson and camel, but no checks.

Fancy Folds

It's my turn to choose the challenge at Cardz for Galz for the next two weeks, and i have gone for Fancy Folds. I wanted to have a go at making a Twisted Gatefold Card that I had seen on Pinterest.

It used up some of my huge pile of 6x6 papers!  Minimal stamping, some fussy cutting and WOS, completed the card.

 

It is not very easy to photograph though which is why you see my fingers holding it shut! I hope you'll be able to join us with your fancy folds.

 

Floral Fancy Folds

I'm afraid I was unable to make a card for the last  Make My Monday challenge as I was unable to get near my craft room as the builders were working just outside it. If I hadn't had this one unblogged I wouldn't have had one this week either. The theme is fancy folds.

I made this one for my sister-in-laws birthday last year and for some reason it never got blogged. The papers are some very old K&Co ones. The flowers are a SU set - Flower Shop. There's some great inspiration on the challenge blog so do pop over and visit the rest of team.

Fancy Folds at Cards 4 Guyz.

I'm quite taken with the twisted pop up card and it fits well with this week's challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz. I dug out some coordinating papers from a very old paper pad bought originally from QVC.

The stamps are from SU, I stamped them on the patterned paper then stuck them on white card as the paper is very thin. I think it might go to my grandson in due course. as always I hope you like and will be able to join in.
