This weekend I got together with my friends for a fun day of eating, chatting, and creating - all my favorite things! :) We decided to make the Quarter Fold Card that was featured on Splitcoast Stampers last month.
I chose to do mine in a Halloween theme. The paper is all from My Mind's Eye. The spider and 31 are from Tim Holtz and were covered with Silk Microfine Glitter from Elizabeth Craft Designs. The spider sits on a rosette created with Tim's Mini Rosettes die.
Here is the card when it's opened. I went a little crazy decorating the inside! I love this paper from My Mind's Eye and will find an excuse to use it anywhere. The bunting was made with Tim Holtz's Ribbon Flags and Spooktacular strip dies from Sizzix. The Halloween stamp is from My Mind's Eye and was stamped onto a banner cut with Tim's Tattered Banners die, then edged with more ECD glitter.
To create a 5" card, I cut my cardstock to 10" x 4 7/8" or so and then scored 2 1/2" from each end. You might have to play with the width a bit to get the card to close correctly.
