Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Barbara has chosen fancy fold cards for us this round.
Or play along with our anything goes birthday theme.
Our party guest and my team mates have some great inspiration for you, so I hope you can play along!
I was inspired by a youtube video by the talented Natasha Foote here to make this z fold card.
I started with a 4.5 x 4.5inch card like hers, then made a 4 x 6 inch sized card (in hindsight I think I liked the smaller, slightly wider card better!)
This was a fun technique but took ages to make as I'm a bit spatially challenged lol!
Sadly too, the "peeps" stamp in my set is faulty - it stamps with a line through the text.
I bought it ages ago and so it's probably too late to let the manufacturer know. I'm in Australia anyway.
My solution was to print the sentiment and diecut it with my cloud die, since the stamp isn't usable.
(Not linking to challenges as this is a straight CASE of Natasha's card.)
Here's another look front on.
Supplies:
Simon Hurley/Spellbinders spring chicken stamp & dies; MFT cloud and grassy edges stencil and cloud dies; 4enScrap tree dies; distress oxide inks and chameleon alcohol pens.
Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

Wow, I love how this opens to a fun fold scene! So incredible and an inspiration to card makers all.
This is such a fun card Cathy and I love the cute chickens and little chicks with that pretty summery scene in the background, and a great shape too. x
Cathy, what an adorable outdoor scene you have created with your fun fold card. Have a nice weekend.
This is adorable!

Your card looks amazing Cathy with the fun fold! I just adore those cute chickens in the farm scenery too Xx
Cathy, This is a great scene and such a fun card. I love how the cloud is part of the fold. Sorry I am late coming by!
This most definitely wins as the cutest of our fancy folds. Makes me smile!
I love the wide space you get with this open layout/design - gives so much more space to work on, which might be good or bad depending on what one wants.. But I really love what you have created. The look of the open sky and the grazing chickens is really fun and cure! Great card, Cathy!
This is such I fun card! Love your cute little scene and wonderful fold. Great stencilled clouds too.
This card made me smile, Cathy! Love the hens and chicks and it’s a great fold.
