Today's WT challenge was to try something new. For an upcoming stamping column, I was supposed to make an envelope card. After searching the internet, I found a new (to me) envelope card technique and gave it a try. The measurements of the folds on my first card were not standard-sized, so I put it aside and made another one (which did wind up as an A2-sized card). So for today's challenge, I took my first try at the fold and finished it as a Christmas card. I'll find an envelope to use with it.
ETA: I was asked for a link to the tutorial. Here it is:
