I watched Lisa Shaw's live video on Nifty Noodle Crafting page this morning demonstrating a 'new to me' fold. I decided to give my card a sea theme, which I thought might be suitable for a masculine or feminine card.
The patterned paper was snippets from a paper pad from The Works. The dolphin is a Lin and Lene die cut, cut from a snippet of silver holographic card. The tiny fish and seahorse were from a Memory Box 'Ocean Corner' die cut, I snipped out the parts I needed. I added some silver holographic Card Candi and a sentiment. The card folds flat for posting.
When I started making the card I got out various snippets from the same paper pad and some navy blue card. Originally I was going to use a couple of different patterns but in the end just used one, so I've plenty of snippets left for another project.
I am joining in the following challenges:
That's very pretty Liz and an interesting fold, and I love the blue paper with the all over fish design and your added dolphin, fish and sea horse look great cut from the silver holographic card, and card candi to match...a beautiful card and as you say could be feminine or masculine. x
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful folding Liz, and the dolphin that pops out is a lovely touch for the marine theme!

ReplyDeleteYou're so good at finding out unusual folds and what's more actually having a go with them. This is a super sea themed card and it has certainly used up some of your snippets
