So, as you can see the basic design of a curtain fold is to fold the paper back and forth to create this ripple. It works really well with double sided paper, because you'll see both patterns! Since, this was a Thank You card for a Baby Sprinkle, I used the onesie from Georgie to accent the card. I marker colored the onesie, and stamped anchor from a retired stamp set to decorate. The anchor is also embossed in silver. My husband is Active Duty in the US Coast Guard, so anchors are big in our family!
As I said before, this paper pack called Happy Times is absolutely FREE this month with a $60 purchase from CTMH. Additionally, there is a stamp set that you can purchase for $17.95. Get both on my website by clicking the icon on the right, or clicking here.
I am entering this card in Between the Folds Fancy Folds Challenge.
Ingredients:
- Happy Times Paper Pack (Available FREE this month!!!)
- Georgie Workshop on the Go (stamp set is not available separately)
- White Daisy Cardstock
- Topiary Ink
- Black Ink
- Green Shimmer Trim
Happy Scrapping, My Artsy Friends!
Great card and love how the folds go all the way across the card...and great way to honor your husband's service to our country with the anchor! Thank both of you for the sacrificing you do to serve our country!!
