Can you believe its Release Week already? Before I get into my card to share, I wanted to tell you who our guest designer is for this release... Any guesses? Well, this individual posted several times, so I knew she was interested in our images, then I saw her post a card using Mei Lin and Mei Li and I knew I had to ask her to help us out. I've been a HUGE fan of Amy Young's work since I stumbled on her blog a couple years ago. Earlier, I posted about a couple of tutorials she made using our stamps. Hope you had a chance to check them out! Thanks Amy for helping us with this release... we can't wait to see what you come up with! Oh- and don't forget to check out my CBFF (crafty best friend forever) Debi! I'm sure she has some surprises up her sleeve too!
On to the card... I've always liked the look of a Joy Fold card but never found the time to make one. I finally made one using Yuki for one of my Christmas Card classes. It was so simple to put together, I can't believe I didn't try this earlier! Decided to change it a little by adding a scallop circle to the front flap so the card wasn't so angular. Then I added a ribbon and roses for a little bit of embellishment.
Here's the card when it's open. So fun and easy!
Did you remember to enter into our blog candy giveaways? If not, there's still time- go to our Introductory post for Setsuna and check out the rules. You can post once on each introductory post for a chance to win. Oh- and Debi just might have some candy to share as well.
