More than one fold at Crafty Calendar

 Hi, I'm back with my second card for today, the theme for our March Challenge at 

Crafty Calendar

is

MORE THAN ONE FOLD.

This is the lovely prize on offer for our lucky winner.

I needed a masculine card for a friend of ours who is an avid reader and this is what I came up with. I made this sort of folded pocket which is adhered to the front of  the same size card blank. There are 2  die cut tags inside the pocket, the larger of which can be used as a bookmark. 

empty pocket

The tags

The tags are die cut, the image on the right hand one is Aall & Create washi tape, you just layer it in strips to build up the picture. I've added a stamped sentiment. The smaller tag is cut from a piece of DP, I stamped the sentiment and added a book image cut from the washi tape

Inside the card.

The inside is decorated with the washi tape to match, plus another stamped sentiment.

There's more inspiration over at Crafty Calendar, so why not head over to check it out.

Thanks for visiting today,

have a great weekend

Special Women

 Good morning, this is the first of two posts today, my DT card for this fortnight's challenge at 

Sweet Stampin'.

The theme is Special Women, celebrating International Women's Day (8th March).

This is the card I made for my youngest sister's birthday last month- she's very special to me- definitely a woman and knows how to celebrate, so hopefully it fits the bill!

The stamp is an older one from Stamping Bella, stamped onto a rectangle of white card and coloured with Copic markers. I die cut the oval aperture, then popped it up using foam tape over the stamped and embossed. sentiment. I added a few sequins for a touch of sparkle. 

Hope you can find some time to join in with this challenge- after all we women deserve celebrating! 

If you're looking for some inspiration pop over to the challenge blog to see what the rest of the team have created.

I'll be back later this morning with another DT card.

Chris
