Fancy Folds or Shaped Cards

Good morning all, and thanks for popping in on this Good Friday. I hope you have a lovely day and a very Happy Easter weekend.

Today it is a new Challenge over at the Fussy and Fancy Challenge blog.

Our new theme is Fancy Fold or Shaped cards,

And our hostess in my lovely friend and very talented Beth.

Here is what I have created , I hope you like it .

This is the front,

This is the back

 

And this is the inside

I have to say that I got the design from a lovely friend of mine Martine Smith, so thank you Martine for the inspiration...you can find Martines blog here...http://abfabdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/

I started by using a piece of A4 card cut down to 17.5 cm wide. I then made three score lines and folded to get the desired shape. I taped my ribbon in place

And then cut two pieces of white card for the toppers.

I used a wonderful corner die to add some detail

And then stamped the sentiment from the remountable happy sentiment stamp set

On the front I added some flowers, die cuts and embellishments, the back I stamped with a chicken from the remountable chick set of stamps.

I saved the cut outs from the die to use as embellishments

This is the swirl die

I then added some detail using Enamel Accents , a new favourite of mine.

On the inside I added some decorative card and a couple of clips...ready for some Easter chocolates

Here is a closer look

I hope you have a lovely weekend, much love ,

Take care

Love it, I have a few Tim Holtz dies that do the same job as those corners and i like using them. Great way to give a packet of Easter chocs. XX
