This was my third try. I'm sure you're all thinking, 'what the heck is wrong with her?' Well, if I knew, I'd do better, that's for sure. I finally decided to just let the dsp do the talking. I don't remember what company paper this is but it's a fun set of basic snowflake backgrounds on the back and scenes of cars, people shopping and skating. I used two papers, one pretty neutral for the base, a more colorful one for the skaters and some trim. This would be a good card to mail for the basic rate...no bulk. As far as the CAS goes, more dots of Nuvo Drops. I'm obsessed. The inside pattern is a very neutral snowflake. I'll add some more drops inside when the outside is dry. Maybe I'll use blue drops inside. Oh yeah.
Thanks for the challenges!

Very fun card! I have to giggle with a full heart, though - fun folds or "new" architecture of any sort on a card is always a heck of a challenge for me, and sometimes what looks to be the easiest technique takes me several goes (and unfortunately wasted paper) before I get it to look even half correct!

Hahaha Jean, I will explain you this fold very quickly, you take a base card (double, you score the front of that card at about 1/3 from the left side (where's the card fold) and you burnish that score line, that side will be glued so your card will be open just 2/3, you die cut a square or circle or star in the front of the card after you've added the dp, but before you glue the side, and that's all, is this helpful??
