Bronze and Steel are the themes for the Anniversary cards that I made for our Daughter and Son.
Daughters card is for 19yrs and that is represented by Bronze so I have used bronze card stock and teamed it with yellow her favourite colour.
Card shape is called an Accordion Fan Fold which I found on You Tube following Sam Calcott's Tutorial. I used a Couture Creations embossing folder called 'Chain Link' on the Bronze cardstock as I thought it rather enhanced the Art Deco look. Numeric numbers are by Julie Hickey which I die cut in yellow and bronze and then off set for the shadow effect. Sentiment is a Woodware stamp. I used yellow card stock for the base shape. The circle is also a Woodware die.

Wow! That is quite the amazing fancy fold card design! The fan design looks so amazing with the embossing over it for all of that texture on the metallic cardstock layers! Thanks for sharing your gorgeous creation(s) with us at the Sparkles Monthly challenge and hope you will play again!
ReplyDeleteWOW! This card is incredible and goes quite a bit beyond the "fun fold" meter! I am so intimidated by triangles so I will have to think a bit about doing this one. But I sure love everything about yours! Thank you for playing with Creative Creases Challenge. I hope you can join us again soon.

Debbie Mageed said it well.. WOW! I can also see this fold used to create a peacock of sorts. Beautiful! Thank you for joining the Creative Creases challenge.
ReplyDeleteThese are really fancy but I would expect nothing less from you! The embossing on the cardstock is very effective and suits the milestones perfectly.I think I'd get in a terrible muddle if I tried this. Thanks for Shopping your Stash with us this time. x
