Lillybet's Papers

Fancy Folds are a bit of a thing for me and we made these at class this week. Everyone's card was slightly different, using different papers. The main thing is to get the patterned paper pieces lined up with the image flowing seamlessly across the page. This way the colours will flow nicely when the card is closed.  The directions are available from my post on 06.06.25 There are no instructions on this page, just lots of samples and different ideas using the same layout and different papers. As you can see there are lots of different looks from the same layout. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you give this card a try. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz
