Under the Sea

Another fancy fold which I saw demonstrated recently in a Facebook video.  I'm sure it must have a name, but I don't know what it is.  So please leave me a comment if you know.  

The patterned paper was from a 12" x 12" paper pad from The Works.  The seahorse is a very old Sizziz die, one of the first I bought when I discovered die cutting many years ago, when the only dies were the thick ones.  The ovals are Memory Box 'Stitched Oval Layers' die cuts and the seahorse is raised up on foam pads.

When the card is open, it reveals an interlinked, concertina centre.  I added a few punched silver dolphins.



I am joining in the following challenges:

  1. This is amazing Liz and the papers work beautifully here looking like a wavy sea, and the coordinating one with sea related images and all in pretty blue/green tones. The shape is absolutely fantastic and looks so complex, and love the added silver dolphins playing in the waves on the inside. x
