Fancy Fold

Hello and Happy Sunday! I hope all is well as we near the end of our weekend. Today I'm sharing a Designed2Delight card. This weeks challenge at Card Ideas (the Designed2Delight DT blog) is:

FANCY FOLDS
Of course I'm "boring" in that I pretty much only make 4.25" by 5.5" cards. Sometimes when I'm feeling a little WILD, I'll make a square card! So this was a GREAT challenge for me, even though I started with one of the easiest folds out there LOL!

I think this is a gatefold...or trifold? I don't know, but it is considered "fancy!" Not only that, but it's super CAS and quick to make! I embossed the "doors" with the Dots folder (so the back is NOT embossed), and added my little rectangle with the Simple Stem and Thank You set flower.

Here it is closed up. I can't believe my edges lined up so well! I do use my score-pal, but even I can mess up the simplest things! BTW, I changed the color of the stamp (digis come in black and white) in Corel, and made a colored square using the same color (in word), and used nesties to cut it all out. I also added glaze to the flower for a little more dimension.

So enter your Fancy Fold creation at Card Ideas! Thank you for stopping by and have a great week.
