I received a cute card from Wendy.  I don’t know the name of the fold she used, it is a staircase shape on the front.  The neatest part is she used different embossing folders and cut parts of them to put on both sides of the front,  she stamped flowers and MS butterflies and pop dotted some of the butterfly.

Glad you like card Yankee. It’s called a tapering tri-fold. – Wendy

[WendyH]

Here is card Yankee sent me. It has a curtain fold on front with a unique background (water colour paper with dried water colour powders sprayed with water and mica then covered with plastic wrap and let dry). The figure is nicely water coloured.  Thank you! – Wendy

Oh how nice and “Springy” everyone’s cards look. And how clever the folds are. Sure adds a lot of interest especially with the layering and cut outs. Wonderful fun. 🙂

[Blossom]

Pretty card Wendy! Love the fancy fold card. Nice work…..the flower child

[Blossom]

Nice card Sheila. Nice work….. the flower child

[DebRN]

Great cards Wendy and Yankee.  Love the different folds.  Sadly to say, I am engineeringly challenged when it comes to making these wonderful different folds cards.  I will admire them and appreciate the artists who execute these folds artistically!  Stay safe and healthy, hugs, DebRN

[JudiKins]

Oh yep, I totally empathize on those “engineering” details. That’s why we (the JudiKins card artists) did a lot of “tearing” and splattering when making our cards. Kinda hid all the fingerprints and the fact that the folds were not straight. 😛 So yes it certainly makes us appreciate those perfect folds!!

[DebRN]

I received my COTM from the wonderful Judi this month.  We both used bunnies in our cards this month.  Great minds, right?  Haha!  Love the design and colors!  Just gorgeous!  Stay safe and healthy, hugs, DebRN

Hello Ladies. I received my cute card from Blossom. I figured I would get it ready to post and comment after I got some other tasks accomplished … one of which was getting my COVID Booster #2. Somehow I forgot I might feel cruddy after, and needless to say…”I feel cruddy!” UGH. So Blossom, I’ll post the scan when I get back to the office. In the meantime, THANK YOU! It’s a really sweet mini card.  OOXX

[Blossom]

Sweet card Judi! Nicely done….. the flower child 😀

[Blossom]

Judi, no problem. Do feel better at least it goes away the funny feelings after a booster shot! Take care…..the flower child

[Yankee]

I love the bunny on The card Judi made.   And the sweet bunny on Blossom card.  I like bunnies.  I used to have many pet bunnies and rabbits.

Deb, I am new to these fancy folds in cards.  For a long time I held out on them and Coptic markers.  Didn’t want to try.  But I have a friend who kept pushing me to die cut more and do fancy folds in the cards.  So I have mastered some.

I am still not doing Copic markers till the cost is the same as water markers!  I would rather put my money into stamps.

I missed you Judi at the Mesa stamp show.  They only had eleven vendors, I still managed to spend the same amount of money.  More money for those who came.  They were so busy!

 

 

[JudiKins]

Oh I’m happy to hear you spent your normal at the show. It’s great for the vendors who were able to participate. Most definitely, I miss you too. I’m just happy that we keep in contact here. Love seeing everyone’s creations. Funny cuz at the show I only see the creative stuff I’m doing and generally its a bit of a “mess”. 🙂  OOXX

[JudiKins]

Here is the cute Spring Time card from Blossom who hoped I would enjoy this “very simple card.” Of course!! How could anyone not love a card that was made and sent “with love”? Its always nice knowing someone is thinking about you and a watering can filled with flowers just makes ya smile. THANKS!
