Spark Your Creativity With A Fancy Diagonal Card Fold!
I hope you have enjoyed all five straight days of my projects featuring the Hello Irresistible Collection. I have another new project today using this collection. Look at this pretty card for today:
The section on the very front opens up to reveal a 2nd flap that also opens up. The flower on the front is heat embossed and watercolored with a Water Painter. You can see all of the layers and the card in the open position in the photos below:
When you cut the card base for the first layer, you’ll have enough from your cardstock piece to cut the 2nd layer so one sheet of cardstock is all you need.

- Flower: Stamp the flower on Basic White Cardstock with VersaMark Ink. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder and melt with the Heat Tool. Use a Water Painter and add Flirty Flamingo Ink to the flower. Wipe off excess with a towel. Cut the flower with the die and glue to card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
