Fancy folds

This week's challenge at Kaboodle Doodles is to make a fancy fold card. I was going to make an easel card coz I just love them but I haven't made a gatefold card for so long I decided to try that instead. They are so easy to make but not to photograph, lol! I decided to stick to one paper, but use the stripes both ways. The butterflies on the front are from an X cut dimension punch with some added gems. The sentiment was a freebie with a mag a couple of years ago. Inside I stamped and coloured this lovely rose and cut it out using a nellie die which I then backed with another circle using a scrap of paper. On the sides I made some swirling leaves using a Sizzix die and added some plain and patterned Primas and gems.

Please hop over to Kaboodle Doodles where there is a great prize on offer from Sunshine Stamps. They have some lovely digi images, particularly if you are looking for something different for male cards. You can see lots more fancy folds from the DT there too. It has been great to spot some of my lovely followers joining in the challenge and I'd love to see more of you there. Remember you have 2 weeks to enter the challenges and there is always a prize on offer.
