You're right it is a fun card and different from the standard A2. Your little glossy frame is perfect surrounding the gorgeously blended flower and leaves. I will definitely try this.

Karolyn what a wonderful idea! I never thought about using Versamark on dsp and then coating and heat embossing with clear embossing powder. I will have to give it a try. Love your video and how you put the card together.

Hello, thank you for the fun fold idea and demonstrating it in a video. Your card is a beautiful use of the products.
Thanks for sharing on the Classroom blog - I love this fun fold & the clever way everything fits together.
You absolutely made my day too with this video. I have some dies that would look great if I colored my own paper as you did to cut them. I also like how you put that square as a diamond to create the opening and the finishing touches you put on it. Thanks.
WOW..... just beautiful!! Love every little detail - especially the added interest of the embossing and the fold of the card! A fantastic project and video!
So awesome! I love how this works, and it seems pretty simple too! Bonus! I think you're right - changing out the frame for the embossed one really perked the card right up. Thanks for the chance to win all those awesome goodies!
Looks great! I'll go
to The Classroom and
check it out. Wonderful
giveaway.

This card is really awesome! I don't have the stitched frames but I'm sure I can make my own frames, I can't wait to try making this card. I also love the colors you used on the leaves, I never thought of that, I can't wait to try this too :) Thanks for the inspiration and btw terrific video :)
oooooo! LUV the "flaps" - thanks for the inspiration!!!
I checked out the video on Ellen Hutson and then to your blog. I love the fun fold card. Another use for my Bold Blossoms Stamps and die.

I am totally in love with those flower dies! Your card is so cute, I love the colors.
This is such a cute and clever card. I didn't have the stitched frames so had to improvise a bit, but they turned out pretty well. Somehow my glue and embossing powder didn't work well together on the frame. Love the vibrant colors with the black and white. Thanks so much for the excellent video!
Wow, beautiful! What a great idea for a special card!
And you made my day with that beautiful card. Yes little details can really make a card a standout. Embossing the frame, what a heart idea to pop the color. Will be use interface that on blacks, oranges and greens when I start on Halloween cards next week. Thank you.
