Hello my crafty friends
This is an unusual colour combination for me to use, but I have to say I love it!
I made these top fold cards, which I don't normally like because of their tendency to collapse and not display nicely. To get around that I didn't cut the Gift Fold-Its on the fold, instead cutting two of the bases. I scored 1" below the top on the back piece and added adhesive ABOVE that score line. Then I joined the two pieces together. Works perfectly and these cards stand tall with no collapsing on the table.
Today I'm sharing a set of Gift Shaped Birthday Cards. Two will be donated to my Mom's nursing home and the other two I will save for when our daughters need birthday cards for the grandkids to take to birthday parties.
