Fun with flowers and folds



 I describe myself as fun-fold challenged, but sometimes I feel up to a challenge, like with this corner fold card. This particular fold was a bit of a struggle, because you have to flip it over at a certain point to get a vertical orientation -- I missed the flip and ended up with a horizontal card, which doesn't really bother me -- and the paper works in any direction.

I used a few scraps of leftover patterned paper to die-cut the stitched flowers and added a bit of ribbon and some acrylic dots as additional embellishment.

This card is entered in these challenges:

Crafters Cafe #322 -- use patterned paper

Pammie's INky Pinkies #2534 -- anything goes

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday -- anything goes

Word Art Wednesday #714 -- anything goes

Creative Crease #106 -- use a fun fold

A Cut Above -- use a diecut

Digi Chooseday #9 -- anything goes
