Hello from Ann, this week i wanted to share a fancy fold card with you.
It take's a while to construct but for an important occasion like a wedding, anniversary or significant birthday this card would be really special.
It has wings that fold forward and back so the card can stand on it's own.
I used the anastasia border to decorate the sides, it created a lovely lacey effect.
I wanted to use a victoria garden doily frame on the front but it was too wide so i cut it in half then overlapped the pieces, cut through the center again and discarded the extra sections. This way i was able to make the frame fit my card perfectly and added floral clusters to hide the joins.
The center portion lifts up to reveal an inside area where you can add a greeting. I intertwined a celtic heart around the mini pearl circle to frame it.
Thanks for stopping by and i hope you have enjoyed my card, I will be back again next week with my final post as a guest designer. All of the wonderful dies i have used are listed below.
