This is my sample for CC1094. Mary Walters is our hostess, and she chose garden green, crushed curry and black for the color trio. Dessert option this week is St Patrick's Day.
For my card I tried a new to me funfold. It's the latch fold. I found all the measurements on the Flowerbugs Inkspot blog.
I used a St Patrick's Day Cupcake die from CottageCutz and cut in the challenge colors. Stampin' Up has two-tone garden green cardstock and I used that for the cupcake frosting and for the background embossing. I used the Stripes folder from Stampin' Up".
The sentiment is an old digi set that Verve was offering back in 2017. The striped designer paper is also from Stampin' Up.
Hope you can play along with us this week We have some great colors for a St Patty's Day card or maybe you have another design in mind.

First of all, I love this clever fold with its little latch closure. But also, what a cute image--a St. Pat's cupcake wearing a leprechaun hat and jingling her money! Very cute card, Mary!

Your cards are always so well designed, Mary! This looks like a really sweet fun fold and I like the Irish blessing on the inside. Cute coins and shamrocks to finish this off nicely~
