Vintage Vogue Spring Fold Card.

By
Morning all - it's Mid-week Motivation time again at Make My Monday and the card I have made is this


It's a Spring Fold card which I have decorated using my Vintage Vogue stamp set. The border was stamped onto a separate piece of card stock so that I could cut around the edges and sponge them. The border on the base was created in the same way.
The gorgeous plum colour is Stampin' Up - Rich Razzelberry and I have teamed it up with a touch of Blushing Bride.
The finishing touches that make this card are a few flat backed gems from Martha Stewart in amethyst and a piece of vintage lace. A spot of adhesive on the bottom point helps the card to stand up.
Here is a view from the side


The instructions to make this card can be found on the blog here so pop over if you want to have a go.
Bye for now - Jacqueline xx

    A very effective card Jacqueline, and worth all the effort you put in to it, I must have a go when I've got the time!!
    A stunning colour combo as well.

    A really gorgeous card Jacqueline. Great stamping and colours and love the lacy look of the trimmed edges.

    Well I've never heard of a spring fold card before Jacqueline - it's very effective with the layered flowers and lace! Vicky x

    Very unusual Jacqueline, I love to see your complex card styles, a gate fold is about as exciting as it gets with me ! LOL ! A pretty colour choice and lovely use of French Foliage .

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
