Fun fold card for Creative Creases

 I am excited to be guest designing at Creative Creases today.  Here is 
my fun fold card:


 

Inside:

Held flat:


Trying to show the shimmer:





All supplies are from Stampin Up except the inside birthday sentiment
 (from a magazine)  and the Lawn Fawn die used for the Happy Birthday.

Directions:
Cut base card stock to 10 1/2' by 5 1/4", scor at 1 5/8  and 3 3/4, flip
card stock and repeat.  Layers are:
Inside: 3 x 4 1/4 (colored card stock) and 2 3/4 x 4 (white card stock)
Front right:  2 1/2 x 4 3/4 x (colored card stock) and 2 1/2 x 4/1/2 (patterned paper)
Front left: 2 3/4 x 4 3/4  (colored card stock) and 2 1/2 x 4 1/2 (patterned paper)
 
Flowers are cut from the same card stock that I used and backed with
card stock for stability and dimension.  Wink of Stella applied for 
shimmer.
