A new Allsorts Challenge begins today and Dena has chosen the theme of 'Butterflies'. I made a birthday card using a fold I discovered recently when I saw a photo of a card a friend had made. It was pretty easy to work out how to make it from the photo and I made mine to measure 6" x 4" when folded flat.
The papers are from a paper pad from The Range. The butterfly is a stamp from the Stampin' Up 'Butterfly Gala', stamped with Versafine Clair 'Morning Mist' and a little turquoise colour added with Promarkers. The sentiment it a stamp from the SU 'Humming Along' set stamped using the same ink pad. I finished off my card with three tiny turquoise pearls.
Prizes this month are from Craft Stash, Anna Marie Designs, AALL and Create, Oakwood
The Allsorts Challenge DT have made some beautiful cards for inspiration, so please pop over to the blog to see what they have made.
I am joining in the following challenges:

I saw your gorgeous card over at Triple B and wanted to come take a closer look. I love fun folds cards and am intrigued by this one! I'll have to see if I can work it out to recreate something similar. I'd love to see it entered into the gallery at Creative Creases Challenge where it's always anything goes with a fun fold card.
