Dawn is asking us to create a tri-fold card for the F4A Challenge. I saw an elegant card recently on Debbie Olsen's blog and wanted to CASE it for this challenge. It gave me a chance to play with a new heart border die from Papertrey Ink that I just LOVE! By using white on white, it gives the illusion of an embossing pattern. I also tried a trick that I picked up on Pinterest to create an edge using a Nestabilities die (I used a Labels Twenty One Nestie). The one thing I would do differently is to emboss the doily stamp using black EP. Using only black ink isn't as vivid as I would like it to be. I'll more than likely add a sentiment to the inside to use as a wedding card. TFL! For more pics and links, please visit my blog here: http://cullen-arycreations.blogspot....fold-card.html.

E-L-E-G-A-N-T!!!! Your card is classic and beautiful, Wanda - love the way that punched border echoes the shape of the medallion points and what a beautiful button! Miss you, dirty sis! A very happy Christmas to you and your loved ones, Wanda.
