Continuing with my theme of fun folds today I am here to share my
joy fold card and another tri-fold card with you.  I received a card from a friend with a joy fold card and she added a little punched out circle closure, I thought that was a brilliant idea so I copied it.  An'Jenic is next up to show you her Umbrellas and Fans.

Here's the Design Team:
 Bonnie 
Cathy C  

Come on back tomorrow for more creativity.

Fantastic cards. The joy fold card is such a pretty colour combination and I'm really going to have to try this folding technique as it looks amazing. I really like the elegant monochrome colour scheme on the accordion fold card too.

2 very nice cards - joy fold colours are very pretty and I like the touch of stencilling on the 2nd one.

Lois said...

I like that version of a tri-fold card, Sue.

Hi Melissa, I'm pretty sure there are instructions for this card on speedy t.v. I believe it is called concentrina card.
