LMCB - How do you fold

Hello everyone

I am a little late getting this post up (Sorry about that).

I spent the week in Toronto doing a training and when I returned sleep was calling my name.

So.... with that being said I really enjoyed this weeks challenge at Lasting memories.

It was really a challenge for me to include folding on my LO - Plus another first for me with this fold. 

It is called pleating... I also tried to do a quick tutorial for you. Please excuse the photos - it is hard to take photos and craft at the same time... I welcome any suggestions.  

Here is my Layout...

The pictures are from a cheer-leading competition at Canada's Wonderland. 

to make the pleats I used my Scor-pal scored every 1/2 in.

 Pinch the scores together  

 They will look like this...

 I used my ATG gun on a scrap piece of paper

 It helps to hold it in place

 The final product ... Well the pleating anyway

Here is a close up of the pleating on the Layout.

   and of course the cheerleader with a Peachy Keen face made from Cricut 

"Paper dolls every day" Cartridge. 

 and that is how it came together...  The beautiful papers and some embellishments that I used were from Authentique Celebration line. 

 Come join us at Lasting Memories for the challenge a Surprise will be the prize from Karen.  

I would like to also enter my Layout into the following challenges:

Dilly Beans - stripes

Kraftin Kimmie - anything but a card 

Die Cutting Divas - ATG 

Party Time Tuesday - ATG 

Dynamic Duos - colour challenge

Owl Card

Good evening everyone!

I am sharing with you a card I made for a friend who lost her husband last month.  It has been really hard for her and I wanted to let her know that I am there for her,

I made the card using the Cindy Loo Cricut Cartridge - love the owl on that cartridge and this was the perfect fit for this card.  I thought that the purple was perfect as it was calming and I really didn't want to have it as a sympathy card but still let her know that I am there for her.

A close up shot of the bling that was added and the stamped sentiment 

I am entering this card into the following challenges

CardzTV: Owls

Authentique Paper: October sketch challenge

Thanks so much for stopping by
