I'm back with another new stamp set and another fun fold! This one starts with a 5.5 x 12 inch piece of card stock and some simple scoring. When folded it kind of looks like a simple pocket card with a belly band...
but when it is opened you can see that there is a little more to it. Don't be intimidated though...it really is not hard to do. It's called either a Miura or mirror fold card.
Here is a closer look at the belly band which wraps around the card to hold the folds and tag in place. The ovals attach only to the band so it can easily be removed. Isn't this angel absolutely gorgeous?!
So gorgeous, and it's easy to color and die cut!
The tag is not attached to the card at all. It simply nestles in place because of the shape of the folds.
I smile every time I look at this set because the angel reminds me of a pair of wooden angels that my Mom painted for us years ago. She mod-podged fabric onto the wood and then painted portions of the pattern over the fabric...they are absolutely gorgeous with beautiful colors and swirls of gold.
