Well hello there Paper Peeps! It’s time for another fun challenge with Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog. The theme for this challenge is “Fold It” How fun is that????? First a word from our fabulous sponsors…..
Stencils made by artists for artists. Unique designs for people who LOVE stencils like we LOVE stencils. Owned and operated by artist Mary Beth Shaw.
I’m sharing my project which is my very first fancy fold card…..and let me just tell you….it was super fun to make!
I used the WorldWin cardstock which was perfect with the Graphic 45 Couture paper collection! The black borders really helped to separate the patterned papers…and you all know how I like to layer! I did a fair amount of fussy cutting and layering. I wanted a pretty frame image to show when I opened the card so I used my Cricut Fancy Frames cartridge. Once it was cut…I gave it a good coat of black Stickles. I also added a little bling to the ladies hair which matches the Stickling I did on her dress.
Here is the card opened. More of the coordinating Couture papers. Loving this color scheme!
I used my Stencil Girls Stencil to add pattern to the Off White Checkerboard Satin Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. First I inked it with a teal chalk ink then stenciled on the pattern with Black Soot Distress Ink. I topped it off with a little Black Netting and another blingy embellishment.

Oooh-la-la! This is such a gorgeous card, Ginny! I love the elegance of the fold, the sparkle from the stickled frame, the wonderful combination of patterned papers and embellies. One of my all time favorites from you….
I really love this card! The elegance of the papers and color combos are just wonderful!!
Ginny, you are on fire these days with all things G45! This first foyer into folding cards is a smashing success. Love the way the card front plays with the card’s inside. And then there is the fabulous ribbon on the front; black lace ribbon with that sequined/beaded flower on top. Could any embellishment say “G45 and couture” more?! Your addition to the DT of G45 and CHACB could not be more fortuitous. Thanks again for all the inspiration.
I love all those wonderful layers and the gorgeous colors. The G45 papers you chose to work along with the WorldWin papers works perfectly!
Stunning card..love the folded style. You can never go wrong with G45 papers.
Ginny, this G45 Couture paper is one of my favorites! Love your card, it is so beautiful!
What a creative way to use the stencil on the ribbon! Absolutely beautiful card!

Love how the black makes everything pop. And the use of the stencil on the ribbon…bravo! I love this!
This made me swoon. I love everything about it. That main image is to die for. I will be so sad when I use my last one!!!
I hadn’t thought of stenciling ribbon. Excellent idea!
beautiful, love all the wonderful details and how your card folds out to tell a story. Fabulous
So chic and stylish – what a glorious showcase of those fab papers. And that ribbon is just delicious. Great folding inspiration, thank you.
