Hello All!
I am excited to share a Challenge Card the is a bit different!
Here is the Challenge!
I saw a Card, on my fellow Stampin’Up! Demonstrator Jeanie Stark’s Blog,
that I wanted to try…Here is a good reason to try it!
The Fancy Fold I am doing…A Bridge Card!
Here is my Card!
Here’s another angle!
Cute, huh? I have been wanting to do this…so happy about this Challenge!
I added to my Card…I put a place on the back, where
I could leave a personal note to the recipient of this card, at Christmas!
Here is an angle shot for clarification!
The great thing…This Card is mail able in our Medium Size Envelopes!
See, it fits! Only a little bit thicker! But it does fit flat for mailing!

Here is my Card again!
I may still bling up this Card, later! Some of the leaves have a glitter on them
(they came that way) I may have to hit them with the Clear Wink of Stella!
Just to give them a little Pizzazz!
I’m also thinking of some Ranger Glitter Glue for the flower centers!
Still Thinking on that! Let Me know what you think!
Blessings and Pizzazz to you ALL!
Oh- I agree- a little extra bling would be perfect! I love the use of the nontraditional colors for a Christmas card! Great job!
Thanks Gisele! I haven’t finished the card…still deciding on the glitter glue for flower center…however Wink of Stella has done it’s job!!!! BTW…next card class…a bridge card!
What a gorgeous card, love that it folds flatter so it can fit in an envelope too. x
I love your bridge fold card! Such gorgeous colours and the poinsettias are beautiful. Thanks for including your ‘how-to’ – I’m going to give it a try! So glad you joined our Paper Craft Crew fancy fold challenge this week! ~Deborah, DT
