Beautiful Challenge


 I am at it again with another couple of challenges.  I still haven't really dug into my Spellbinders card club kit from July, but once I saw the challenge from Color Hues I knew it would be a perfect fit.  The challenge #23 is to use yellow and pink.  The Spellbinders kit from July had loads of that.  Since I knew I wanted to tie some patterned paper I decided to enter into Craftyhazelnut's August Patterned Paper challenge.  See below for the links to both of these challenges. 

This card is a fun fold card.  I used the card base that came in the kit cutting it from the fold line to the bottom 1 1/4 of an inch from each side.  I then added a "bridge" across these cuts with another piece of patterned paper that I reinforced with a scrap of pink cardstock I had out on my desk.  When you open it, it feels as if you have two cards in one somehow.  I will add a video below showing how the card opens.  I give credit for this card to Dawn's Stamping Thoughts on YouTube.  You can see her video here showing how she made her card.









I am entering this card into the following challenges:
