TGIF, peeps! It's Friday and another fabulous fun fold day. Hope your day unfolds to be fun!
So, I saw Connie Stewart create this fun fold and a card immediately sprang into my head. Well, actually it was an idea, not the card...ouch! I used her template that she provided and everything was a piece of cake. Well, actually a card, not cake. Okay enough...on with the card...
Not only was I inspired by Connie, I was inspired by Creative Creases #32 - Anything with a Fun Fold and Festive Friday Challenge FF#109. I used yellow, bees, flowers and twine. I'm also entering my card at C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #637 - Anything Goes.
My card base is Night of Navy, DSP is Hues of Happiness, top sentiment is from the Slim Sayings Stamp Set, "Happy Birthday" is from the A Grand Kid Stamp Set.
The bee is from Jolee's Boutique. Ribbon and twine are both retired, Daffodil Delight Ribbon Seam Binding 1/2" and Night of Navy twine fom the Well Suited Twine Combo Pack.. I used Night of Navy and Daffodil inks for the sentiments.
Measurements:
- Card base: 10 1/4" x 8 1/2", score on 10 1/4" side at 1 1/4", 2 1/2", 4 3/4", 7" and accordion fold
- DSP: 7" x 8 1/4", cut at 1", 1", 2", 2", 1" on the 7" side
- Basic White: 3" x 8 1/4"
- Ribbon and Twine: your choice!
