Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.
Tonight I'm joining in the fun with a blog hop celebrating cool folds!
My card has a fun curved front on it that enables it to stand up!
And It also folds flat to fit inside a standard envelope.
On the back of the card is somewhere for you to write to your recipient.
Because the card has the fun standing feature, I though it worked really well with the glorious Thoughtful Journey paper.
And then for the back of the card, I replicated the scenery using ink and blending brushes and a bit of water painter to smoosh the colour a little! The stamp set I have used is the Happiest Day stamp set.
And for the features on the front of the card I've used the Wanted to Say dies and silver glimmer paper.
I hope you like it!! The measurements are: 14 x 10 cm scored at 7cm for the fold in the middle, and the longer strip on the front is 2cm x 16 cm scored at 1 cm at each end to tuck under the layers.
Please head over to my online store if you wish to see these products in more detail - and you can place your order anytime (if you're in Australia) while you're there (even if you're in your pyjamas!!)
And, if you can see yourself creating cards and sharing your love of papercrafts while inspiring others, perhaps you might be interested in joining my Stampin' Up! family - contact me to find out how.
A wonderful card Julia. I adore the Thoughtful Journey DSP and this fold shows it beautifully. I love your addition of the trees along the curved front panel, the glimmer stars and the sentiment. Your watercoloured back panels are gorgeous. xxx
