Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge Blog #78 - Fancy Fold

This week at Hand Stamped Sentiments we are have a Fancy Folds Chalenge.  It is really going to be fun to see what all our participants come up with. I really didn't know where I was going when I started this card.  I started folding and trying to create something different than what I had seen in the past.  I' don;t even have a name for the fold I used....maybe y'all can help me figure out what I should call it. I used quite a few new products from the new catalog...Lucky Limeade CS, Pool Party CS, Island Indigo Ink, Pool Party and Island Indigo Stampin' Write Markers and Fabulous Florets, Best Friends Forever and Happiest Birthday Wishes (Hostess set) Stamp Sets....other items include, Always Artichoke Ink, Pear Pizzazz Seam Binding Ribbon, Shimmer Paint (mixed with alcohol for a mist), Rhinestone Jewels and Whisper White CS.   If you are interested in any of the materials I have used in this card, please let me know.  I can be reached through email at sherrysinknstamps@yahoo.com.

  1. Sherry, this is beautiful! Love the colors you have used and your fold is fabulous. The name that popped to mind was "peek-a-boo fold"...I have no idea why. Haha! Your shading on the flower is awesome, as always. Have a happy day! :)

  2. Sherry you always come up with such unique and beautiful color combos. I'm not sure what to call your card but I love that the Whisper White card stock looks like lace pulled back to reveal another beautiful layer. Beautiful background behind the flower. You'll have to tell me the what and the how. I would love for you to come down to SA so we can all see your beautiful projects in person.

  4. OMW- AM I think crawled inside my brain and stole my description for this card... but then I got to thinking, maybe name it something really catchy like... peep-show card. Hahaha that would get ALL kinds of attention. I think you did a FAB job on this card you must have labored over this forever... at least it looks like it. :)

  5. Sherry, I am so impressed that you created this on your own. I can copy like no ones business but original ideas are a lot harder to create. I love your colors! Green is my favorite and you did such a great job incorporating so many new In Colors. The shading and images are gorgeous!
