Scholastic "Pull & Tuck" Layout

Hey Everyone,
 
So for this final challenge for my month as a Guest Designer on the CTMH Heart 2 Heart Challenge I decided to "pull out" and "tuck in" one of favorite layouts from a previous workshop
 
This layout uses the scholastic paper pack from the current CTMH idea book along with milepost shapes and the Stamp sets School Rocks and Chilhood Portraits (retired).
 

Now for the hidden "pulls and tucks" which were inspired from the retired Magic How to Book by Jeannette Lynton...

Chantilly "Swing" Card

Hey Everyone,

Check out my latest Chantilly "swing" card inspired by the H2H Challenge - Pun Fun

I love spring from the flowers to the butterflies but most of all the rainbows !  But like the cards says "Without rain there are no rainbows" -- so here's hoping for April Showers.

Fancy Folds Card Workshop

The launch of the new CTMH catalogue means new paper patterns to play with! Here are a few cards made with the "For Always", "Later Sk8r" and "Chantilly" paper collections.

To get your hands on these cards join the facebook event or purchase premade cards here on my website store.

 

 

 

 

 

Let's start with two diamond fold cards made using the the new "For Always" collection.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These cards are made using a unique folding technique that creates a center diamond that lifts out of the card.

The next set of cards are made using my geared up "Later Sk8r" paper collection

  






The first of these cards looks pretty simple from the outside but opens to reveal a hidden pop-up gift card holder. 








The second card has a center fold that steps up above the rest of the card.









The last two cards are made using the new "chantilly" paper collection.

The first of these cards is an easel card which stands up to display the gorgeous cover with 3-d flowers.

The second of these cards has a center shape that flips when the card is opened to reveal the back side of the rectangle shape.

Pics coming soon...
