Fancy Fold with 4th of July, Americana, Military Theme
This week's sponsor is:
OWNER -- SUE MCMAHON
PRIZE PACKAGE -- $15 Store Voucher
Here's my card:
I'm not sure what my fancy fold is called, but it features two diagonals. Here's a view of the card when it's partially opened:
The sentiment is attached simply with a star-shaped brad with allows it to swivel, making it possible to open the card.
I also had the joy of creating a card using a McMahon Five Designs image, gifted to me by the incredible owner! THANK YOU, SUE!

WOW!!! I love them both!!! Always love coming to see what you've made!
ReplyDeleteBoth are fantabulous cards!!
ReplyDeleteI love that fold on your SMC cards, and that DP behind the fishbowl is wonderful!!
Sniff, sniff! That has to be one of the sweetest images I have ever seen on your first card - wiping my eyes! As we know, being military children, that real life photo is probably sitting in our old photo albums! Beautifully done - I had to do a double take on your second image, at first I thought it was a piece of paper towel! (you know, the baby wipe technique!) Awesome touch, both are out of this world fab! Much love! x0x0
ReplyDeleteOh I love that first card Jeanette! Fabulous papers you picked for it. Those little fish are cute too!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are great. Love the bubbles with the fish and the type of fold you came up with for the Military.
ReplyDeleteGreat cards! I absolutely love the Proud to be an American card. The image is so cute and of course your dp matches perfectly. Love the fold.
ReplyDeleteGreat cards, love them both and the SMC card is sew cute, great job on coloring on both....
ReplyDeleteThe image on the first card is so cute with those oversized boots and I LOVE that creative fold! So fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd your second card is totally fab too! I love the paper behind the fish bowl and using the dew drops to make bubbles was so clever!! Have a great weekend, Jeanette!
Fabulous cards Jeanette love the first one looks a complicated fold and I love it I chose the same image to use for mine he is adorable isn't he great work as always.

Love the fancy fold on the first one. And such cheerful colours on the second one.
ReplyDeleteThese are AWESOME Jeanette! LOVE the fold on the first one - will have to give that a try sometime:) CONGRATS on losing 73 pounds, that's AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards. I had to check out McMahon too. Good stuff there. I am addicted to SMC. I have almost all of the digis Angela has drawn. I like your color combo for the card. Tan works well even for a baby.
ReplyDeleteWow, both cards are great! Isn't the baby not the cutest? You did a great job with these!
