This will be my last Outside the Box Challenge.
This last card is very different, but it's made with simple, basic tools. It does stand upright. First, I will post a link to the video where I learned to make this elegant but easy card:
6x6 Double Tucked Fold Card
Below is my version, which I made using the Graphic 45 St. Nicolas papers & stickers, and a few Silhouette print and cut designs.
Closed view:
Fully open front view:
And, because you need someplace to write a note or at least sign it, here is the back:
Note, the green behind the card is just to make the card show up better, since my card base is white, and a white edge on a white background can be hard to see the outside edge of the card.
This challenge is to make the fairly easy card shown above using whatever papers and ephemera you have, OR, if this is too overwhelming, not to your taste, or you need something really easy due to being behind on all the challenges, you have another option: to make a card that opens downward instead of from the right side or from the bottom (which is how most cards open). Here is an example of a card which opens at the bottom (Silhouette design, with Queen & Co. flip flop shakers):
Twist, make an envelope to fit and/or do something to decorate it related to the card, with stamping, decorative paper, embossing, or whatever you like.
Either way, I hope one of the above options will be a challenge that you can enjoy.
