I made some mix-up in my head when stamping the script and sponging colour on the reverse side of this paper, so it wouldn't work with the fold on the right-hand side of the card. It was going to have to be on the left or on top - I went for the top.
Embossed the card base.
Added the folded card.
Filled it with flowers and foliage and added a little bird charm, and finished it off with some stickers instead of stamping a sentiment.

I can't get over how different these cards become just by turning the collar!! (When we were first married, we were so poor, I turned all the collars and cuffs of my DH's shirts!) Love your blue posies!

I had done this technique before, but did not know it was called a collar fold - though it does make perfect sense!! Mine went out the the right, but I definitely like the look you gave your card by having the flowers pop out of the top! Those gold peel off stickers look sweet across the bottom too!
