A Corner Flip and a Rose

Welcome

The challenge for this months round of the small Card Swap group I am in was to make a card using the Corner Flip fold, and this is my result.


I altered the technique slightly, but the main fold is there... 


For my focal panel I used a NBUS stamp set I recently purchased by Kiwistamping.  It was stamped using Memento London Fog ink and coloured with  Faber-Castell Polychromos


The sentiment was part of the set,  stamped in Memento Grape Juice ink


The inside was left blank other than the patterned paper backing the corner fold, which was from a Rosie's Basic Patterns pad.

What a beautiful rose in these colours! And a special fold-card; I always like seeing them, hate making them myself (plus they are too thick for in my Art Journals)... Hope you have a good weekend!

so beautiful Maxine. Love the way you did you cuts so the inside is so neat. Mine ended up with the inside a bit messy which I had to add some patterned paper over to tidy it up. It's such a fun fold for sure.

Your work is always lovely to see! I'm glad you have enough work to keep you through our lockdown. I have plenty of crochet yarn to make items for my favorite charity. Hopefully, it won't last too long.

You really do the most beautiful colouring with your pencils. That rose is fantastic. So pretty and so realistic.
A lovely card, looks like a very interesting fold - love the papers you have used to set that rose off. I must look at how to make this card.
Blessings, Neet xx
