Double Tag Book Fold Card

I'm back in my craft room for the first time in ten days.  My hubby and I have just returned from a holiday in Austria and Germany, ending with the visit to Oberammergau to watch the Passion Play.  We were supposed to watch it in 2020, but Covid arrived and the play was postponed for two years.  A link to the background of the play, which is performed every ten years, is HERE.

I followed the instructions for making a Double Tag Book Fold Card HERE.  I haven't seen this style of card before, but was fairly easy to make.

This is the front of the card.  The patterned paper is from an old Papermania paper pad and I die cut the flower with a Lisa Horton flower dies and added a tiny white pearls in the centre.

This is the inside of the card.  There are two pockets for the tags and I've added white panels to the back of the tags to write the messages.  

I am joining in the following challenges:

    Great that you were able to catch up with your postponed trip. You certainly manage to root out a selection of folds for cards - this looks to be a good one, nice colour choice.
