The Project Share December Blog Hop: Fancy Fold

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Thank you for visiting my blog, today is the second Project Share blog hop. This month the theme is fancy fold. I have decided to do a style of card I have never done before. So I had to watch a video tutorial to find out how to make it. I watched Sam from Mixed up crafts and learnt how easy and clever an impossible card is. I know these were really popular a few years ago but I have only just got round to making one. I made 4 actually! I made the first one the same size that Sam did then I made it smaller and decided to made the 2 sizes a gain for the video tutorial. I made Christmas cards originally then made 2 winter Birthday cards. You are going to want to watch the video for this card as it is hard to explain with out the visual.
