Fancy Fold Arrow Card with Video

Hi there Creators

Well.... I found this amazing card on Pinterest (as you do) and thought I've got to have a go at that! it's by Mixed Up Craft, and here's the link: Tricorn Style Fold Card in case you want to see it too, I made mine up from an A5 card as I really hate to waste cardstock by cutting it to inches!  So at some point I might do up a quick video just to convert it to A4 format for you!

Anyway after doing up my draft I then proceeded onto my "proper card" and all was going well till I realised I'd scored it all wrong lol, however as I really don't like to waste cardstock I persevered on with it, and I really liked what I accidentally made, so I figured I'd share it with you, I'm pretty confident you won't find this anywhere else, and if you have a more inspiring name for it than my fancy fold mistake card, please let me know!  I was wondering about Fancy Fold Arrow card, what do you think?

So after all this talking I'm sure you'd much rather see photos!
here is the card I intended to make, the Tricorn Card:

however due to my "specialness" lol I made this card:  I've used the Broadway Bound Designer Series Paper for this one, it's a Specialty paper, with really cool Gold foiling in it!  also used the Balloon Bouquet punch and Piece of Cake bundle.

after having scored it wrong in the first place I figured I could add an extra score line, which is how the arrows at the top and bottom came about!  I think it's kind of cool, what do you think?
I also made another one, cos when you're on a roll.... this one uses the pretty Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper along with the Well Written framelits.

Then finally I decided that I'd better make a video on it, so Voila...

In this one I made this card:

which I have to say out of the the 3 of them is my favourite, the Designer Series Paper is the one from the Sale-a-bration Catalogue Botanical Butterfly DSP, the only way to get this is through a $90 order, and it is really wow!  I've also used the Butterfly Gala bundle (stamp set and punch)

I hope you enjoy this write up and video, do let me know what you think, or if you have a better name for the card than "fancy fold Arrow Card"

I hope it inspires you to create!

Hi Creators,
I know I say it every month, but but wow another month almost gone!!  March is a busy month with Picture to Page show in Kangaroo Flat happening the weekend of 16th/17th March, click this link to find out more info. 

Anyway on with the cards for March..... Class dates are: Saturday 2nd 10am Maryborough, Wednesday 6th 10.30am Laanecoorie, and Thursday 7.30pm Laanecoorie.
First up, I was asked for a spot of watercolouring, and I figured this card would work for a male or female card.

I've used the Well Said bundle that has heaps of words! (both dies and stamps) with a spot of watercolouring in the background.
Incorporating a bit more watercolour this next card has gorgeous watercoloured butterflies

And I just love, love, love! this stamp set Life is Grand, and the Butterfly Gala with the matching Butterfly Duet Punch are also fabulous!
Next up I had to use some of the absolutely amazing Sale-a-Bration Grapefruit Grove or Lovely Lipstick foil cardstock (which is still available for free with an order of $90)

It also uses the beautiful Dear Doily bundle, (oh my goodness the dies are just WOW)
