On Wednesday night I had my Pretty Perennial Class on my Stampin Scrapper Facebook page. It was so much fun! I haven't done a Facebook live in a long time. I didn't realize how much I missed it, until I was doing this one. I am definitely going to be doing more of them.
Creative fold cards are so fun to make! I saw a card like this online, created by Peggy Noe, and loved how she used the Sunflower dies to cut out the big flowers and off set them. I had to use it on this card. I love how it turned out.
This type of creative fold is called the gate fold.
The measurements for this card are:
Cardstock:
Basic White Thick
- 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 2 1/8" and 6 3/8"
Night of Navy
- cut at 2 at 2" x 5 3/8"
- cut at 3 1/2" x 3 1/2"

I stepped out of my comfort zone on this card. LOL This time I off set the card stock and the designer series paper to create the background. This is a simple card that looks like it is difficult. The best kind!

I have to say that I case'd (copy and share everything) this card created by Tina Gillespie. I loved the simplicity of this card and wanted to make it just like she did.
That is one of many things I love about Stampin' Up! Everyone is so willing to share their ideas with everyone else. I always tell people who want to make my projects that they are giving me the best compliment ever. To have someone love your project so much they want to make it, it doesn't get much better than that.

Hi! Thanks for giving me credit for my card design! Your version is fabulous, as are your other cards. I’ll be so sad when this bundle retires.
