I made this card for TLC191 - where we were to use watercolor pencils and instead of using plain water to blend, we used a pink hue of twinkling H2O.
Well, I don't have twinkling H2O, but I do have a vanilla breeze shimmer mist, which I think gave the same effect, and boy what an effect, the image is so shimmery and fun!!
I decided to use a different fold for today's card and settled on this matchbook fold. I have never done this one before, but it was really easy so I know I will be using it again! Start with at piece of paper 4 1/4" by 11". Then sore at 5" and 10", and fold the 1" flap up to create the match book fold. I did trim the top flap that fits into the 1" fold by about 1/4" in order to add some brads to hold the 1" flap up, and still allow for the card front flap to fit under the smaller flap.
For the background I used the Bella Tole background stamp inked in creamy caramel. Both the main image panel and the sentiment were sponged lightly with creamy caramel to soften then up a bit. I also inked the torn edge to give it more definition.
To finish off the card I added a hodgepodge hardware tab with some light pink crimped ribbon.
