Card Opened for Display
Close Up to show more detail and dimension
Card folds flat to mail
Welcome back everyone to the 4th week and last week of my Guest Designer opportunity for the Watercooler Wednedays Challenges...So this week's challenge is Gail's Feminine "Anything Goes" and I need a WOW card for a friend's upcoming milestone birthday. I thought I would give this Window Box thinlet pop up card a go. The great thing is the card mails flat and displays three dimensional. Since it's a bit gloomy here with the lovely rainy Fall here..I decided I wanted a card with some colour...pool party and calypso coral are one of my fave colour combos and thought I would add a touch of lemon lime twist. Embossed the decorative squares and the background with the Tin Tile Embossing folder and lightly sponged with Crumb Cake to highlight the pattern for a more vintage feel. Voila!
Deets: All Stampin Up

Thanks so much Chantell. I was aliitle hesitant about whether i could pull off the colour combination, however I am really happy with the finished card. Love the bright cheerful colours..sunshine for the gloomy Fall weather here. :)
This is such a lovely use of the Window box thinlit and works beautifully to create a pretty fun fold card.

Thank you Tammy for dropping by and leaving the blog love. Loved the *Something New* Challenge..and looking forward to the next Cardz 4 Galz Challenge. :)
What an amazing card you've made for your last week on the Watercooler Wednesday Feminine Challenge. Glad that all the folks on Cardz 4 Galz and JAI appreciated it so much, because it is brilliant. I love the box and the Jar of Love is showcased so beautifully. A very special card, and I want you to show me how to make it the next time we're together, because I want to add this fancy fold to my collection. Awesome!
Thank you Penny! I’m so glad that I was able to participate as the Guest Designer for the Watercooler Wednesday Challenges as it certainly helped me out of my slump and kickstarted my creativity. It’s been awhile since I’ve tried a new to me technique ~ so another special fold to add to the repertoire. Definitely on our to do list next time we get together. Love being able to take advantage of all the different challenges for inspiration. 🙂
