This is a super simple fold, you have a piece of cardstock 6" by 12" and using a trimmer cut an angled piece off starting at the 4" mark on one end and up to the 6" (top) on the other. Then just score at 4" and 8" and fold.





I hope you like this one, I'm really happy with my coloring today, especially the shading on the jeans, it looks like it's supposed too! LOL
Be sure to add your card and I promise I'll visit.

Welcome to another week and another Magnolia Monday, number 20!

This is how the card looks unfolded, I inked all the edges and faux stitched each panel. I really like how soft and subtle the patterns are on the paper pad.


There is a small panel for your message which got inky too!


I don't know if you can see but I used another piece of my favorite lace fabric on the main panel of the card. Even it got the ink treatment.
I'm not sure whether this is more distressed or shabby or vintage, I hope a little of all.
Please come along and share your card with me this week.

OMG can I tell you how in love I am with this paper pad? It's crazy but I knew as soon as I saw it at Joann's that I had to go straight home and use it! The cardstock border stickers are gorgeous, all glittery and wonderful. The flowers were made from paper from the same pad, yes it even has sheets of just pure glittered paper! Agh I know I'm going to have to print another coupon and get another while they still have them :)
OK, that's enough excitement over paper.
