Welcome to the Creative Creases Anything Goes (with a fun fold) Edition #54 where we challenge you to put a few extra creases in your projects. My project celebrates the new beginning of spring. Will it ever emerge?

This fold is known as a collar fold.  It’s commonly used in Father’s Day and Mother’s Day cards. I used the modified version to resemble a curtain so we can pull it back to reveal the beautiful flowers outside.

The beautiful paper is from Hello, Irresistible 6×6 Designer Series Paper (DSP). The name says it all.  It’s so irresistible I had to order more before it sells out.  It also features a couple of Stampin’ Up!s returning colors, Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock.

Hello, Irresistible 6×6 DSP 161139

Instructions for this fold really need to be done by video. Since I’m not set up for videos yet, I won’t be posting instructions.  However, I did a search for you and found a good one on YouTube. I’ll share that at the end of this post.

The flowers and paper leaves on the front of the card are fussy cut from the DSP. Then, I added some leftover wooden elements and gems from my stash.

The center flower is popped up on the top, outside edge only.  The other flowers rest upon other layers removing the need for more dimensionals.

Last, we’ll dress up the inside with more of the DSP and a fussy cut bough of flowers from the Easter Bunny stamp set #160272.

The video I promised is from fellow Demonstrator Wendy Bronson. You can see her video here: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1136865363425650
