Hello!  This month my theme is accordion folds or fun fold cards.
 Today we are swimming by to showoff our Swans!  I've always liked to make cards that don't just sit there .... I made a pop up card and a tri-fold card for our swimming swans. I know swans aren't blue but couldn't resist coloring her blue with my Prisma color pencils.  Don't forget to comment on our blogs to be included in our drawing to win a set of new stamps!  Please go to An'Jenic's blog to see where her swans are swimming.

Here's the Design Team:

Cathy C  

Come on back tomorrow for more creativity.
