More than one fold at Crafty Calendar


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

  6. Such an inspiring card design. The folded pocket and die-cut tags, especially the larger one doubling as a bookmark, are brilliant additions. The use of washi tape to build up the image on the tags is incredibly creative, and the stamped sentiments add a perfect touch. This is a wonderfully executed project, ideal for anyone who loves reading.
