fancy folds

Hi, Hope this post finds you holding up okay. I am trying my best. I just asked my Alexa to play some Happy music and I am sipping an Iced Coffee from Dunkin, so far so good. The coffee runs are becoming a serious problem. Do you think it’s normal that they know us by voice in the drive-thru at Dunkin? LOL Today I have a card for The Paper Players where they asked us to do a fancy fold. This is not something I do on a regular basis. I am a plain and simple A2 kinda gal, so this is what I came up with, as it was safe and quick. Don’t want to do much to rustle my feathers these days. The news has that job! LOL

As you can see all you have to do is add another score line at 1 1/2 inches. Pretty fancy huh? LOL I used a Digi stamp from Power Poppy for my card and a mix of Copics and colored pencils. I have no idea where I got the thx die-cut as it was in my bits and boxes drawer. I dotted my background once again with a Copic as I can’t leave them plain white these days.

Big cyber hugs to all of you. If you are struggling as I was this morning, try some happy music or Dunkin… it helps, Nanc’

Hello, Fancy Folds is our Challenge for Wild Card Week at Just Us Girls. Ina is our hostess and she was the wise woman that selected our challenge this week. A challenge is good for all of us…especially this girl! I can’t take credit for the original design of this card you will find it HERE!

The fold itself is very simple and Joy has much better photos and explanations than you would ever get from me. Sorry folks, but just keeping it real. Way too much time goes into that! My card has such a mix of stamps sets. It’s a bit of MFT and Stampin up. The EF is from Cuttlebug. I colored my little bird with colored pencil…badly it appears. I thought it looked better than that in real life, but the card is gone so I can’t check. LOL I have been selling so many cards at one of the local gift stores in town that I rarely have any on hand for very long. It’s a good problem for sure. It feeds my addiction at least!

You must come to Just Us Girls and check out the rest of my teammate’s cards…they did much better than I on this challenge. Thanks also to Marlena for being such a fabulous guest!

Take care and Happy Stamping! Nanc’
