Hello everyone...happy Thursday! Cathy here with this week's Ways to Use It Challenge.

Pleated Skirt Fold
Lever Card

Center Step Card
Bridge Fold Card
Easel Card

Here's my sample: Easter Tulips

Here's my M fold card, WT728 Happy Birthday by Covington Crafter - at Splitcoaststampers. Thanks for the encouragement to try something new, Cathy!

Oops! It's not a card, but it is a fancy fold!

I was happy to give the pleated skirt fold a try and build my birthday stash: WT728 Birthday Drapery

And use old paper as per my resolutions WT ;-).

I do love the triangle trifold which I learnt here when I first joined, so I might be back with another if I can find time and energy.

Here's my new fun fold discovered last week

Cathy, I'm sure this gallery is going to be filled with fantastic and imaginative folded cards. I went with a simple one and used supplies I haven't used in years(Scor-Pal and punch) I never have been good with "fancy formats" and the easel card seemed doable for me. Thanks.

BIRDHOUSES BIRTHDAY

I thought this was a fun fold to hang a very intricate die cut off the top. Super challenge Cathy.

WT728 floral thinking of you
 

For today's folds challenge- I received a gift of this beautiful vintage style layered flower and brad combo from a good friend- added some quirky blue grey washi tape to offset the pretty eyelet border above it. Recycled a lots of cool papers into a collage background, locked down with a swirly embossing folder. Finished with a aquamarine ribbon bow and a stylized sentiment block. Here's floral thinking of you

What a wonderful challenge this was Cathy- thank you! I had to take 2 pictures of my card so you could see the pop out swing feature better:
