I wanted to make a fun fold card for a dear friends birthday so I
decided to try a squash card. You can tell best by the
third picture how is squashes up to fold.
It was less complicated than I expected. The base is a
8 1/2" by 8 1/2" piece of double sided patterned paper.
You score at 4 1/4 " diagonally and vertically so
that it is quartered. Burnish the score lines. Then score
diagonally from both corners, burnish well.
I just eyeballed sizes for the front and two inside layers.
The flower and leaf are part of new set from
Altenew: Mini White Splendour Anemone. Colored
with Copics.
A few fun challenges:

Beautiful squash card, Donna! I have made this for the inside of the regular card but I love how it is all on its own. Your designer paper was one of my favorites, and I'm so happy it's still in use. Thank you for playing with the Creative Creases Challenge, and I hope you can join us again soon. We really appreciate your support!

ReplyDeleteAssim como nestes dias, como no ano de 2023, eu estava muito doente, quero dizer, doente e não conseguia fazer as coisas sozinho por causa das minhas doenças com pedras nos rins e do meu herpes, mas hoje agradeço a Deus por ele ter usado o Dr. Jekawo para salvar a minha vida, Estou muito grato pelo que o Dr. Jekawo fez por mim depois de anos a sofrer de doenças. durante 20 dias, estou curado e saudável novamente, vivi em Ohio, EUA, o Dr. Jekawo enviou-me os medicamentos à base de plantas via correio dhl depois de pagar as ervas, porque o Dr. Jekawo é um fitoterapeuta tradicional africano no qual herdou o poder ancestral dos seus antepassados para ser capaz de curar todas as doenças, tais como demência, ELA ,Parkinson,Diabetes,Herpes,HPV,Fibróide,Hepatite,Chlamydia,Hv/SIDA,Disfunção eréctil. Tantos que não posso aqui referir mas quando contactado o Dr Jekawo no seu Email drjekawo@gmail.com também no Whatsapp +2347059818667. Ele explicar-lhe-á sobre a sua jornada de conhecimento sobre ervas até agora.
