Wouldn't you like to sit with me,
and enjoy a cup of nice, hot tea?
One of my favorite folding techniques is iris folding.
And it's been quite a while since I made an iris fold card.
Not too long ago, Chris Franco, a CTMH demonstrator was looking for a few individuals who might like to join a design team for her stamping challenge, heARTful stamping. Since I was playing in her challenge regularly, I decided I might as well volunteer. It's a fun challenge with simple rules, 3 top picks and a monthy prize winner. Inspiration projects will feature Close to my Heart products. But they are not required to enter the challenge.
This week's challenge theme is Anything Goes.
With the CTMH Artistry Cricut cartridge I cut out a tea cup, and
then set it aside so I could use the negative aperture for my iris folding frame. All these papers are from the Some Kind of Wonderful paper pack. The "Hello" on the little tag is from the Some Kind of Wonderful stamp set.
I can't invite all of you over for a cup of tea, but I can invite you play in the heARTful stamping challenge.
