This is a belated birthday card for Clint, who does cabinet work, loves bears and the color purple. He also loves when his wife creates fun folds. This one is fun because the bear with the balloons is hidden until the card is opened. I made it for the Color Challenge as well; I had Shaded Spruce, but had to fudge on the yellow and berry colors. I stamped the bears on Cinnamon Cider, added some highlighting with brown markers and fussy cut. Paper pieced the balloons. Here is the tutorial for the Z Box Fold: Z Box Fold Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers

I don't know why a bear looking between his legs cracks me up, but it does. And then to have the surprise of the bear and balloons when you open the card just adds to the fun. Great fold; great papers; great fussy cutting; great way to sneak in the purple; Great Card!
