For today's challenge to use a different style of card fold I chose this off centred diamond folded card shape. I have no idea of it's official name, a friend showed it to me recently and I think it's very cute. The card is made from pink card stock, the bottom part covered with basic grey Euphoria paper cut to fit and a nestability scalloped circle cut in half and glued to either side of the diamond piece.
My Amelia Swings design stamp for Kadoodle was coloured with prismacolor pencils/oms, cut out and then paper pieced with the dp for her top. She's attached so that her legs hang over the edge of the diamond. I sponged the edges of the card with TH di tattered rose and added a rub on letters sentiment to the nestabilities cut circles to finish. I hope this is ok for limited supplies as the circle is the only real layered area. TFL as always.

Oh Chris, the thing I love most about you is your ability to never disappoint! I am so crazy about Amelia! She's just the sweetest image! Her presence on any card is certain to project such a fun and wonderful card. Of course, you know I love your coloring; very cool indeed. Sweet fold card, too.
Thanks so much for your response to my pm: you're the best, Chris. Too bad you're on the other side of the pond! Fabulous card, my friend, simply fabulous.

Chris, this fold is so cool. You will have to share the how to's. Amelia is just the perfect image for this card. Love that you cut her out and you did a mighty fine job doing that! Love her paper pieced top. So cool! Your prisma coloring is ever so good! You have done such a fantastic job here! I just love your creativity! TFS :0)
