Another day nearly over. I stayed home today and caught up on some washing and dishes and some blogging. While I was hopping around I saw several cards like the one I am sharing tonight. It is called "Double Dutch Fold" and you can find directions over at Splitcoaststampers.com. The top folds down and you add an extra piece to form the little gatefold, pop over and look at the tutorial, it's easy to make.
For the cardbase I used SU Early Espresso and the DP is from p.i.g.g.y tales twinkle, twinkle little star collection. I've had this in my stash for a while now so am really happy that I found this lovely Meljen's image to go with it. I bought several images after finding some freebies to try. I cut the image out with a nestie circle diecut and I used SU Wisteria Wonder to cut the backing circle nestie diecut and also the punched circle for the sentiment. The sentiment on the front and on the inside of the card are from Pink Cat Studio - Ladybug Party, the little star is from SU So Happy for You. I continued the theme inside the card using another piece of the DP and then a piece of white card which I sponged with Pacific Point. The image was coloured with Copic Markers.
I would like to welcome Traci and Lynda (not sure when when joined but I don't think I said hi to you- sorry)
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
