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.

Woohooo. I think we made the same folded card. Of course yours is much finer. I love Amelia. That is one of my favorite names. She looks so happy. It looks like your card stands up more. I wonder how you did that. This is awesome. I am sure this is one of your designs. I think you have used her before. Love the dp.

What an adorable image. Wonderful colouring and paper piecing. Like the interesting fold/design you used. I like how Amelia is hanging off the top section and your mix of dp's. tfs
