Fancy Fold Card for Christmas Card Club

 Good morning. It's time for another card for our club and this time I chose the theme which is to show a fancy fold card.

My Card 1


 


I have made a bridge  card but put a full sheet of acetate at the front give it strength which then made it into more of a diorama card. When folded down it measures 8" x 6". I used paper pad from The Works called "Snowy Christmas" which I bought last year.

Card 2

I made a 7" easel card using papers from the same pad and added some JND snowflakes

I thought  I was going to be unable to post because on Thursday my computer was attacked by a virus which added a trojan and has completed wiped out my computer!! I cannot even open it. Luckily I still have my very old Windows 7 computer from when I upgraded to Windows 10 with a new computer. John has set it up again for me this morning so I can use Blogger, gmail etc at least. He has removed the hard disc from my machine and has been working on it for the past couple of days but it appears to be kaput. Sadly I have not saved the last couple of years work to my external hard disc so I have lost all my photos, pictures, digi images etc.  Please, please do  be sure to save your work on a regular basis to an external source. Luckily all my documents were saved elsewhere - initially I was in a real panic because I am secretary of our WI and have masses of stuff on my computer!!

Hope you are well  and having a better time than me!!😀😄 

Love and hugs

Christine

 Time for another challenge at the the !2 MoC LinkUp We are always Anything Goes - providing it is Christmas! We usually have a twist if you want to follow it but this month it is purely Anything Goes.

My Card

 

I decided to go with black and white. I embossed the background layer with a snowflake e/f. The central snowflake is stamped and embossed onto black card and then diecut with Spellbinders dies. The other two snowflakes are from Spellbinders Create A Flake dies - all very old dies.

Good morning. It's time for a new challenge here at Moving Along With The Times. The challenge is to make an inky background.

My Card



I used a 6" square card base and an embossing folder from Crafter's Companion to emboss the front of the card. I used a stencil that I've had for a number of years but it has rarely seen ink.After stencilling I diecut it with Spellbinders Grand Nestabilities - very old dies.
