Special Folds

I love making cards... duh... and I love making different ones... duh... and the more I make the more I want to make different ones...  make any sense to you??? I know you are most likely like that too... right??? 


Well... I wanted to share a few here with you...

 
Making a piece of paper that is punched and then you fold it to create a special place to glue a medallion... love it...  I also added a few VERY SPECIAL flowers that my dear friend Deana Barr made for me...  Don't worry Deana, I didn't glue these down...  they are double sided taped and that way the person that  receives this special card can use them on a blouse... although they might never get to anyone else... they might end up on mine... LOL.. 

 
adding little pearls is also an eye catcher... 

 
Pleating of paper... a special fold... and then adding a little folded tea bag on each fold... wow... special... this paper also was given to me as a challenge by one of my friends and students... Sheila... thanks again Sheila... loved doing this one... 

 
I love making this style of card from the first moment I saw it some 8 years ago... love it... never fails to amuse me in so many ways... what to put where... how many layers, etc etc...  you can really spend hours and hours on this one... 
 
So this time I added a lot of medallions... small, half ones, only tea bags folded etc. etc... the following pictures will show you all the special areas... 
 
enjoy... 





I hope that again you have enjoyed viewing these cards... I still have many more to share with you... I told you I love to make cards... and I also sell them... so if you are interested in any ... please let me know... some I will not sell... but 99% I will... 
 
have a super wonderful day and enjoy it all...  have a great week-end too...  create something for a loved one... 
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

  2. Thanks so very much Penny... that was a challenge from a student and dear friend... she gave each one of us a card and an envelope to make something from it... I tore the 'card up and used it all on the front of another card to create this... I had fun making it... love a good challenge too... Have a great week-end...

  3. That last card has so many details - it must have taken ages to complete - but certainly well worth it. Love all your folding! Great inspiration!

  4. Dear Shona, I work very quickly and also love to try new things... so things come together very quickly in my studio... LOL... they have to or they go into a bin to do later... just finished making some really fun things with tim's newest dies... but can't show them until after the 10th of May... they are a surprise for a baby shower... love creating though... thanks for the input... Love, Light and peace...Bonnie
