Fun Fold Series – Day Three
It’s Julie Elak’s turn to share and she is adding a couple folds to her card today.
A Mini Bendi card is a fun way to create a scene. It allows dimension when the card is standing up and yet still folds flat for mailing.
The center panel works as a dock, with the waves full of fish (and a shark below).
To make sure the fisherman was sturdy, Julie die cut out a second fisherman and sandwiched the dock between the 2 with liquid glue. She did the same with the fish on the end of the fishing pole, die cut a second fish and sandwiched the hook between the 2.
Are there any folds that you plan to try so far?
Happy Stamping!
