This card is for Trace's VSN challenge--a red, blingy, diva-worth joy fold card.
I used PTI tea leaves patterned paper, the large size on the front flap and the small scale on the back flap. I stamped the bird with Colorbox red and added three rhinestones, colored with a red copic. After having my hubby cut off the shank of the button, I attached only the left side of the button with a glue dot, so it could be used to keep the joy fold flap closed. The sentiment stamped on the inside is from Taylored Expressions, it reads "Faith is the bird that sings when the dawn is still dark."

I LOVE that there is a large scale and a small scale of the same DP. Too cool! And that white button is just perfect for your card. Thank you so much for playing and sharing!

I had such a struggle with this fold, but now I can try again when we aren't under pressure to complete it quickly. Your creation is balanced and beautiful.
