Another shaped card this one is a Concertina Pocket Card once again there are tutorials and measurements for this on You Tube
I am in a small card group here in New Zealand and we have a monthly car swap, so nice to get a card in the mail, and the theme for that month was an interactive card
I had recently been to a card class using Mintay Papers it was the meet me in Paris set, such lovely papers to work with and I had papers and scraps left over enough to make this card
The lady I was to send the card to has traveled and Paris was one of her destinations
One of the first things to do with the card was to score two lines on the fold of the card so that it looks like a book this is so with the thickness of the inside of the card it folded neatly and the ribbon used to tie the card together fitted nicely
I used hot pink card as my base, adhered the pink backing paper, that looks like it has a white embroidered flower on it, onto white card then a piece of white ribbon to tie the card up, then a tag with the tower on it adhered the camera, glasses and card with 3D tape then it was onto the inside
Once again there was a lot of measuring , cutting and pasting that was the reason for the two scoring lines I used the same pink backing paper as on the front of the card, added other bit of ribbon to the back, the pockets and front pieces were backing paper with peonies on it, such pretty paper.
now the interactive part of my card was all the bits and pieces I was putting into pockets
I covered the score lines with a strip of gem lace (only way I can think to describe it) The pockets were filled with tags, doily's made with card BP paper and images scraps of paper on the pink card, a perfume bottle a cat a envelope with a dog to name a few there was space to put things on the back of the concertina part, in the bottom of the pocket, gems and brads you can just put anything you want to on a card like this
This card also took some time to put together but I think it was worth it and the lady receiving it like it
