As Sabrina so lovingly put it, I'm intimidated by folds. Not sure why...I don't read directions very well, I don't see in 3D at all, just excuses I guess. I'm not very accurate at measuring, it seems, and that does not work well. But.......I LOVE THIS FOLD! And I plan on making more.
I kept it pretty simple, used some cool dsp from SU and the travel dies. This will go to my daughter and son in law for their 15th anniversary in November. They've done a fair amount of traveling together over the years...Europe, India, the US. I know they would love to do more, actually talked about taking the girls out of school for 6 months to travel and show them the world. Don't ask how Grandma Jean felt about it, but who am I to tell them how to raise their kids? Too bad we can't travel much now, they're home schooling anyway. What a crazy time! BTW I need to add an apostrophe to 'Let's'...the die didn't have one. Not good.

I think they will appreciate this cube card as travelers! Good for them. Now, not a good time, as we well know, but I'm sure they have plans for later. Well done, mf!

Very elegant and stylish, Jean. It makes an impressive card for an anniversary. No apostrophe, that's not very good!
I have no idea what the trigger was, but it's reminding me of when we saw the Orient Express on display in Paris.

Cute card. I laughed when I read your description about how you read the directions. I was facetiming my friend Pam and we were working on these cards together. She was reading it step by step and I jumped down to step 6 or 7 and said, I think I can do this. Then ended up having to go back to step 1.

So cool for your dear travelers! So Sabrina won us both over with a fun fold. Impressive! And my reasons for not liking them are exactly the same as yours. I just can't see it and I hate to measure. I'm also terrible at following instructions.
