Welcome to June crafty friends! Hope all is well in your world.
Barbara has challenged us to make a fancy fold card this week at Seize the Birthday. Full confession - this is the third card I made for this challenge (I photographed both of the others and decided that they were just meh). I ended up being happy with this vertical easel card. This is a great 'bang for your buck' card and the tutorial for it is here.
Be sure to head over to the blog to check out the fabulous creations from the rest of the team, our terrific Surprise Party Guest Wanda and previous winner Chris. Hope you can play along with us - using the topping isn't mandatory but we love it when you do.
I'm also entering this in to the latest colour challenge at our sister challenge Color Hues. I really love this colour combo (and just as an FYI - coral is different than pink ;) ).
Always so grateful for the comments. Thanks so much for stopping by.
Have a terrific day and a wonderful upcoming weekend.
Take care,
Glenda
