Beautiful Blooms Fun Fold

 



 

I have been in a creative lull, I like to design my own cards and
have just been without ideas.  I wanted to create today so I found
a fun fold card on Pintrest for my inspiration by Terri Gaines.
It was actually very simple to create and reasonably quick. I used
two embossing folders, one 3D and one regular on the white panels.
Coloring with Copics.

I love your beautiful fun fold card, Donna! The flower is beautiful and love the embossing to give some texture. I will have to try using different embossing soon. The effect is wonderful. Thank you for playing with the Creative Creases Challenge, and I hope you can join us again soon. We really appreciate your support!

This is beautiful, Donna! What a showpiece for the recipient! Love the 2 different embossing folders used and your gorgeous colouring of the flowers. If you're in a creative lull, it surely does not show in this card. Nothing wrong with finding inspiration on Pinterest. Many do the same. Sending hugs and well wishes!

Lovely lovely card and I think I have that set of florals! I don't think fun folds are ever easy, but you made it sound effortless! Thank you so much for joining us at The Beautiful Blossoms Challenge.

It's beautiful and an impressive fold. Hopefully your mojo will return. I find sometimes just making something - anything- is enough to get back into the swing , so I hope that works for you.
