Joy Fold Card

By
The challenge this week over on Make My Monday is a Birthday Card with Pearls, so for this week's Mid-week Motivation piece I made a Joy Fold card - take a look


I have used some of my S'U Beyond the Garden DSP for this and the Greenhouse Garden stamp set. I've also used a variety of colours: Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Tangerine Tango, Blushing Bride and Melon Mambo.
Here's how it stays shut


I placed a cut out flower on the corner - I also embellished each flower with a blob of liquid pearls.
Here's the Birthday sentiment


It's from the Up, Up and Away set.

This is also the card we will be making at my Tuesday morning workshop next week and as always I will post a step by step tutorial on how to make this card on my Craft Club Blog - stay tuned for a link in the side bar.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look today - bye for now - Jacqueline xx

    This is amazing!!! LOVE the fabulous colors--and the patterns go so well together! I KNOW they're from the same paper pack, but sometimes they don't look so good together--these are amazing! :)

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

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
