Carol, a/k/a Gingerbeary8, hosted this weeks technique tutorial to make a napkin fold card. For Carol I'm sure it was a breeze, but for my lil' ole mind, it was a little more complicated.
Fortunately, my local friend AudreyAnn and I got together at her house and figured this out. She figured out more than I did. She was also kind enough to let me use some of her Paisley Print DSP which is so beautiful. I meant for the blue dsp to show in the front instead of tangerine tango, but I highlighted in blue, so I guess that's okay.
The b/fly looks a bit better IRL. Once I sprinkled on the DD, it kind of faded the brighter matching colors. I also have it stamped out 3 x and popped up on dimensionals. The rest was border punching, sponging, diecuts, punches, flowers and nesties.
Carol, you did a fantastic tutorial and I just had to join in the fun. You're da best.

Dare I ask if this is coming to my mailbox??? I'll wait like Izzy does in the rain, sleet, and snow. LOL Seriously, this is gorgeous inside and out. Super colors, beautiful 'fly, and sponged so pretty. Time, I need to find time to make one of these. Maybe I should just collect them instead and let someone else do all the work. HAHHA

Oh my gosh look at this....be still my heart. Let me move over and let the Princess step in!!! This looks absolutely amazing. We all get by with a little help from our friends. Good for you to work with Audrzi as two heads are always better than one when it comes to trying to put something together. (How come men don't understand that!!! lol) Love love love all the intricate details you used to create this beauty. Pam you have honored me with this creation. I think it is exceptional and am so pleased that you were able to be able to do the tutorial. What a gem of a friend you are and talented as well. Beautifully done Pamzi.

WOWZERZ PAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you know how amazing this is? Did you say triple-decker on the B'fly? Awesome! The colors and brilliant DD sparkle make it one FAB and stunning centerpiece. I love the blues added over the tangerine - this card just pop right out of the gallery. Love your fun corner details and layers too - it's a STUNNER Twinzi!!
I so enjoyed our time together, but you give me too much credit my friend - I'd have had everything upside down, inside out and twisted sideways if not for your help - Even with Carol's perfect and amazing step-by-step instruction LOL!

This looks like a lot of work and you've added so many extra details to it - and the border punches. I don't know if I'd be brave enough to even try this. Beautiful job.
