This is for the Twisted Sister challenge in where we are to make a primarily green card, with a border and an unusual fold line. If you would like to join us, just put TSC1112 in the keyword. All are welcome!!! Thanks Irishgreensue for issuing this way cool challenge!
I chose double sided green and pink dp and created a lattice fold. I used a scalloped punch for the border. I used scalloped nesties and a butterfly punch. I added the flowers and the pearls.
What do you think?

Ahhhhhh, Lesley, that lattice fold is so awesome!! You have to teach me that one, GF - guess I am going to have to make a run up the turnpike to Coatesville!! Love how you used the DSDP to show off both sides of the paper at once!! Those pearls ALL OVER are just perfect to accent the flowers, the butterflies, and your punched border! Well, you nailed this one on all 3 counts!

Wow the edge of your card is stunning Lesley, so that is what's called a lattice fold I had to go looking for that because at first I thought you had punched holes and threaded ribbon thru the holes, but this is wonderful I love your matching flower with the big pearl brad in the middle and I love your sweet little butterflies, super card.

Wow Leslie this is awesome. My friend just let me borrow a book yesterday that has some cool card folds and you have inspired me even more. I am just so excited about this lattice fold. I may have to join this challenge if I get it figured out!!! Your card is so pretty and I love the intricate detail that the fold makes. It adds so much interest to this already beautiful card!

Go-go-Marleygo! It's wonderful! Love the pearls and your lattice fold. Good to see you giving those punchez and die-cutz a workout too! Yes, I'm enjoying doing the happy-coupon-waving-butt-dance lately - have added about 7 new punchez to my arsenal since arriving in AZ 9 days ago. Yippie-skippie! Life is good. RYPH!
