AUTUMN SCALLOPED BLOOMS TOWER FUN FOLD

Do you have friends or family that love to display the handmade cards you make for them?  If so, they will love today's Tower Fun Fold.

Once you get the fun fold base of the card created, there are many different ways to decorate it.  I chose to use the Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper (DSP) and the Autumn Woodland Glimmer Specialty Paper.  

I kept the front of the card simple by layering a couple of the Scalloped Blooms die cuts.  They were die cut the same size and rotated one scallop, so you see the back Cajun Craze layer die cut peeking out between the scallops of the Very Vanilla cardstock.

The Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Scalloped Blooms Stamp Set.  You can never have too many birthday cards!

Does the Tower Fun Fold look scary?  I'll admit, it was a little intimidating the first time I tried it, but it's easier than it looks.  Watch my video below to learn how it's done.  

I had a difficult time choosing between two different DSP designs when I made today's card, so, for the video I used the other design from Autumn Opulence that I was debating between.  Which you do you like best?  

There is no "inside" to this card, so we use the back of the center panel for the message layer.

I covered the two side panels on the back of the Tower Fun Fold with the same DSP used on the front side panels.  To further tie the back to the front, I added a couple of scraps from the front horizontal DSP to the bottom of the message layer.
