Tri-Fold Tree Card

Hello folks,

Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend and enjoying the lovely weather.

There is a wonderful lady called Angie Kennedy who is in the US. Angie is a very successful Stampin' Up Demonstrator and I get a lot of my inspiration from her projects. This is one I thought I would try today....

This is the inside of the card (sorry for the wonky picture!)

And I thought I would copy my SU 'mummy' Jules on her jaunty angle pictures!! It works, I love it!!



I really enjoyed making this card and will be trying more in the future.

See you all soon xxx
