 Hello-

It is so good to be back in my crafty room. I WANT to make cards, last year not so much.

I have three birthday's this month, and all are getting the same fun fold card.  They'll not be mailed for a week or two, but they are finished.  I will be sending each one to a different challenge gallery.

This is the link to the YouTube video I got the fold instructions from. 

I used various papers from Stampin Up 6x6 pads so the patterns would match color wise.  This fold is a great way to use up an 8.5 by 11 sheet of colored card stock.  

Here is the first one, all patterned papers, and some fussy cutting of images on the paper. This one goes to AAA Birthday Game -Anything Goes

I like this card, its a bit interactive and I don't have to write a lot.  I am not a verbose person and writing a note inside a card is often the most difficult part of the entire process.  This one has my note already written, the envie is addressed and stamped. 

 

The first went so easy, I made another one and it is going to a new to me challenge Creative Creases -Anything Goes with a Fun Fold.

    

I was having a ball with this fun fold and one last card...and my January Birthdays are done! This card will visit two challenge galleries - Fourseasons - January, and Challenge up your Life - Ice,Ice baby.

   

It was a productive day for me.  How are you feeling about crafting?  The break I took in December made me miss it so much, that I am again invigorated to play.

 Thanks so very much for stopping by and visiting.
