"a little note" (WC Session 4, Week 2 - March 11, 2021)

This great fun fold card was made in our Women's Connection class on March 11, 2021.  More recently, I made this card for a "fun fold themed" Stamp Camp North using different colors (see photo below).

Many thanks to Bonnie O’Neill (www.bonniestamped.com) for posting this basic card design.

Stamp Camp North Version

For the Stamp Camp North card, all materials are the same, except Rococo Rose card stock was used in place of Bermuda Bay, and Blushing Bride card stock was used in place of Pool Party.  Also, the center of the daisy was cut from Dazzling Diamongs Glimmer Paper from Stampin' Up! (now retired).

NOTES:

1. Banana on inside of card is an online image downloaded and printed on my computer.

2. I generally use 60# cover stock for computer-generated images and text simply because my printer likes it better than heavier stock.

3. On the video and in the photo above I painted the end of the tail green -- how could I possibly have mistaken that for a leaf?!  In any event, I have gone back and re-colored that portion of the image so the end of this sweet monkey's tail doesn't appear to have gangrene (see photo below)!
