At long last here is my card for Sabrina's fun box fold challenge. You wouldn't believe how much trouble I had LOL.....finally the penny dropped and I worked it out. I have whipped up 4 more of these in the time it took me to make this. What a brilliant challenge - thanks Sabrina.
Because of the window die, I positioned the front panel at the top of the base fold. Because of the over hanging sign and bike wheel, I will make an envelope and insert a piece of cardboard.
This card was inspired by a recent little holiday to an old gold mining town; in its day every second building was a hotel. One pub survived and now all the old ones have been converted into fabulous bakeries, lolly shops and tearooms.
Thanks for looking and thanks again Sabrina for another FUN challenge.

Awesome little bike shop and with only a little tweak to Sabrina's box fold challenge to accommodate your bicycle! Love the overhanging awning! Only thing missing is Sassy Cheryl!! This is just perfect!

I haven't tried this card yet but I too, would have struggled. You added your own take on it to boot with the awning and window. LOVE the old wood you used around that window. It really DOES look like old wood. Fantastic box card, Susie! LOVE it!

Susie, Sabrina nailed it when she used the word "brilliant"! This is so fabulous! You might be interested to learn there is a town named Happy in the great state of Texas.
