Valentine Hammock Card

I saw fold demonstrated on the Nifty Noodles Crafting Facebook page recently and decided to make this style of card for my hubby's Valentine card.

The patterned paper is from The Range and I used an X-cut 'Small Polka Hearts' embossing folder. I used punches for the hearts and the sentiment layers.

    1. Thanks, Debbie. It folds flat for posting and looks like a gatefold card when it's closed. x

  12. Your hammock fold makes such a charming Valentine design. The red and white palette keeps everything crisp, and the embossed hearts add just the right amount of texture. The way the patterned panel frames the fold gives the whole piece a polished finish. This is a wonderful example of how a fun fold can feel both playful and elegant.
