Fancy Fold Card

Today I thought I would do a "just for fun card".  This is called a teepee card and I found the tutorial for it here.



This adorable image is from sliekjestamps and is colored with Prismacolor pencils.  I sewed on some lace and added some ribbon and a butterfly.  The flower is Prima and the center is one of my crepe paper flowers.  They are painted with Creative Inspirations Paint "Winter Frost" and some pink glitter.  Winter Frost  is one of my favorite colors; it adds such a gorgeous shimmer!





I used some cupcake liners for the ruffle under the Spellbinders diecut.  The image is a free clipart and colored with Prismacolor pencils and then the strawberries and bottom of glass are painted with CIP "Rose Quartz and Green Olive.  The glass and cherry are given a coat of Glossy Accents.



The scallop was painted with CIP "Rose Quartz" with glaze medium and water added.




The card has a velcro closure so it can be folded flat for mailing. 
Would someone please verify if I have word verification turned off?  I thought I had it turned off before and then someone left a comment saying it was on.  Hope I have it fixed.  Thanks 

Thanks for visiting and have a blessed day!
