Fun Fold Birthday Card

Today I'm sharing the 6th card in my monthly series "Throwback Fun Fold Dies" and I started with this Ticket Fold-a-Long die set. I thought these dies were fun, and ended up with three different Fold-a-Longs over the time they were available. 

This one (Ticket Fold-a-Long) uses a bunch of older items in my stash, including the lovely vintage paper (from K & Co). I don't know what it is about outline floral dies that grabs me, but they do. This one is an older die set from Stampin' Up ... the year it was released there were two that I REALLY wanted, but I had to choose and ended up with this set (Hand Penned). LOL, I do keep an eye on the Facebook group where Canadian's can purchase retired Stampin' Up sets though ... in case someone is selling the other set I wanted. 😊

I guess I should call this more of a hybrid Fold-a-Long card, as I incorporated a 'bendy' card idea for the inside (the band that goes across the inside folding centre) and an accordion folded cardstock spring.

Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
