Girly Gatefold Card

I really love this creation by Pia,,,,,working with my "Bessie Gutmann Sheet" so directly from her blog: This week's optional twist over at theOutlawz Twisted Thursday is to make a gatefold card. Our April sponsors areNicecrane Designs and Paper Temptress, and for a chance to win you need to enter a project, and if you choose to use the twist you will earn an extra entry in the draw.

This little girl is an image from the Adorable Bessie DSL set, you can find it here. I colored it using Promarkers. The lovely DPs are from Maja Designs, I love the red, white and blue color combination, it makes me think of May which is my favorite month - I love spring! I mounted the image onto a panel of die cut circles, added some flowers and die cut leaves and stamped a small birthday sentiment

Beautiful Birds Gate Fold Card

And...What about this Bird Card by Darlene Pavlick?: I'm thrilled again this week to be sharing a card I've created as guest designer at the Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge. Remember this is an NYTHING GOES CHALLENGE with a TWIST. This week's TWIST is to create a GATE FOLD CARD!

I really enjoy creating gate fold cards but I must admit, I don't do it often enough. Today's challenge was a great opportunity to get back into making a few fancy fold cards for my stash! And of course, with flowers in the image, I just HAD to make some homemade flowers that matched in. So easy but such a great embellishment!

The inside of today's card has slightly decorated to match in with the front panels and can be used for a variety of themes! By simply 'notching' around the circle pattern on my design paper scrap piece, I was able to achieve a divider line for my sentiment/signature.

Earlier I mentioned the flower embellishments. They and my faux stitching are actually the only  mbellishments on this card. Of course this beautiful image speaks for itself and doesn't need much more in the way of embellishment. For the flowers I have used the Memory Box 'Petal Party' #98304 die set which I purchased throughDies R Us. By simply die cutting them on white card stock, sponging a bit of SU 'more mustard' ink in the center and conditioning the petals lightly with a stylus ... these 'matching' flowers were created in no time. The centers were adorned with Kaiser ivory pearls. The faux stitching was created with a white Gelly Roll pen!

It is Love Time,,,,,woww,,,, so unique card by Margreet Burger 

It's partytime at Divas by Design. We are celebrating our 3rd birthday with a bloghop. The darling image is from the Spring Love sheet of Nicecrane Designs. Behind the image I stuck Bille's Heart of Joy!crafts and at the left top a metal corner. Paper is Basic Grey and I distressed all edges, both with the distresser and with ink. Under the flower arrangement I used the Delicate Fern of Memorybox and various flowers, all tied up with a piece of lace. At the left you can also see a selfadhesive ribbon.
