Book Binding Fold

Update on my last post.  I can now comment using my profile pic on other blogs using my iPad. 😀  However, I still haven't worked out how to sign out of my blog.  When I click on 'sign out' it just takes me to my editing page.  Another problem I have is that quite a few blogs aren't appearing on my Reading List, so I'm missing lots of new posts on blogs I follow.  I'm still working on how to fix all these glitches, so apologies if I haven't left you a comment for a while.

The current Butterfly Challenge is  'B for Book Binding Fold'.   This is new fold to me, but an easy one to make and Mrs A has put instructions on the Butterfly Challenge blog HERE.  The six elements for the challenge are Buff, Bondi Blue, Bougainvillea, Banana, Braid and Book Binding Fold.  I've included all the six elements on my card.

I used an MFT 'Stitched Cover-Up Companion - Diagonal' die for the main die cut, a prize I won some time ago in The Playground.  I used the die again with a snippets of coloured card and inlaid the cutouts into the spaces, after embossing them with a Cuttlebug 'Swiss Dots' embossing folder.  The sentiment is an IO 'Thanks' die cut, another prize from The Playground.   I added three tiny pearls to Simply Creative 'Butterfly' die cut.  A strip of floral ric rac braid finished off my card.


I am joining in the following challenges:
